BookmarkQ and Citebite are two utilities that allow users to create a short URL to selected, specific text on a web page rather than just linking to the entire page.
Both BookmarkQ and Citebite work with bookmarklets that you drag onto your browser's bookmarks toolbar. Highlight the text on the web page you want to link to, then click the bookmarklet button.
BookmarkQ generates a small pop-up box with a short URL that takes you directly to the selected text. The pop-up also has buttons to share the link directly via Facebook, Twitter, Gmail or other email.
Citebite opens a new window with a direct link URL with options to send the link directly to Delicious, Stumbleupon, or Digg.
In either case, when you click on the the generated link, you are taken to a version of the web page with the selected text highlighted and a header at the top indicating that this is an annotated page view.
