When you're researching a topic on the web, you're constantly coming across
interesting little snippets of text or images that you need to collect and
collate in one convenient place. Most people do this by flipping between a
word processor and a web browser, copying items of interest. The process
works, but can be slow. So here's a neat idea. Browser Clipboard is a free
extension for users of the Chrome web browser which allows you to drag
selected text to the clipboard, or right-click content from a web page and
choose Copy To Browser Clipboard. You can then drag stored items from the
browser clipboard onto any web page. For example, a web-based note app such
as Evernote, or your own blog.
