Available now, a bookmarklet and later, a Chrome extension.

If you use Chrome for Mac, you can't drag'n drop the bookmarklet.
Here's a workaround as you can't add a bookmark manually either: Bookmark a random page and edit it (cmd+d) with this as the URL: javascript:(function(){var a=window,b=document;if(b.body){var c=a.screenLeft||a.screenX;if(c>340)c-=349;else{
var d=a.screen.availWidth,e=c+a.outerWidth;c=e>d-331
&&c>d-e-9?0:e}a.open("","__SWBM__","location=1,resizable=
1,menubar=0,scrollbars=1,status=0,toolbar=0,width=3
40,height="+((a.outerHeight||768)-58)+",top="+
(a.screenTop||a.screenY)+",left="+Math.max(1,c));va
r f=b.createElement("script");f.src="http://www.goo
gle.com/sidewiki/bookmarklet.js?hl=en";b.body.ap
pendChild(f)};})()

It works pretty well, but an extension would be neat. I'm sure their done with the extension but they wait for the release of the "Chrome extension store" for a louder buzz :)

I have a question?
How would the site owner get to know if there is any sidewiki comment on his website/webpage?
