Recently I've seen a lot of code with annotations in it, namely places in the code with an at sign ("@") followed by a sequence of characters; sometimes it looks like a method call with parameters passed to it. Does anybody out there know of a good place on the Internet where I can make sense of what annotations are all about? Thanks!
