bibliographer has grown support for importing https://raindrop.io highlights.
Raindrop is a nice bookmarking and archiving service, but I subscribed specifically for its support for annotating web pages, which works on both desktop and mobile browsers. (AFAIK, the only other web highlighting service is https://hypothes.is, which doesn’t support mobile very well.)
Everything I highlight with Raindrop is now saved to the references section on an ad-hoc basis.
If you want something similar for your site,
bibliographer saves individual annotations (highlights and comments) as a JSON file,
which can be read as site data in Hugo.
Alternatively, writing something yourself against the
Raindrop API is dead simple —
no oauth required for personal use!
This is pretty different from bibliographer’s support for tracking the books I read,
so I remain a bit uncertain that adding this functionality —
rather than making a brand new tool —
is the right move.
But there was enough overlap in shared code that I decided to do it anyway.

- How to annotate literally everything inspired the functionality in the first place. I’ve wanted something like this for web highlights every since I read that post, but haven’t had a way to annotate web sites from my phone until I recently subscribed to Raindrop.
- I Wish People Were More Public inspired me to write this post about it. At first, I planned to just link to the references in other posts if that ever seemed useful, but when I found myself highlighting a few passages on that article, I realized I had to be more explicit.
