Abstract
A key feature of the web is the redundancy of information and this is only possible due to the presence of the same or similar information in different locations and in different superficial forms. This feature was extremely useful to annotate documents since it allowed harvesting algorithms to gather information from various sources, check its reliability and use it for annotation purposes.
