Hacía tiempo que buscanba algo parecido y por fin lo he descubierto en los starred de Google Reader. Clipmarks es una plugin para Firefox que te permite guardar citas de texto, imágen y video para luego releerlas o bien compartirlas o publicarlas en …

The social aspect of it is useful too when I want to see what other clippers have found on my particular subject of interest.

Not sure how you got your “huge Clipmarks button that appears next to the menu bar in Firefox”, but my Clipmarks button sits very comfortable and out of the way on my Google toolbar.

If I may clarify an issue noted above regarding Comment #25. There is indeed a limit to how much can be clipped. It’s 1000 words. Anything above that is required to be saved as a private clip. As you clip an article, there is a ‘count down’ to the number of words you have processed in your clip, which appears in the browser. If you go over the 1000 limit, a warning is given that you have the option to scale back below the limit in order to publicly post the clip on your blog, clipmarks, etc. Or you can save it privately in your personal Clipmarks repertoire. Hence, it will be saved to your Clipmarks account and only viewable by / to you.

The clipping intent of Clipmarks is and always has been promoted as “only clip the parts that interest you or that you wish to save.” Whether this is a paragraph or a sentence or two, but always within the confines of the word quantity limits if you desire interaction over the clip with other members.

There are also ways to print and / or save a clip to your computer. These options are available within varying areas of Clipmarks.

Some members do use Clipmarks to save a few bookmarks. But I believe it was not the intention of the owners to be a ‘bookmarking’ site per say.

Conversing, constructive debate and mature responsible interactions within the comments of clips is always welcome and encouraged. I have been amazed at some of the things that I’ve learned through the social interaction, and have even come around to changing my viewpoints about certain topics after listening to pros and cons and facts offered by other members.

I hope this clarified a few questions that you might have had. Even if you register only to see ‘how it works,’ I can guarantee that you’ll be sticking around a lot longer than you anticipated.

ciao!

it would be more polite if clipmarks allowed publishers to opt-in (like… del.icio.us) such that they can determine the content they’d want users to clip. de-constructing someone’s content without permission and re-purposing it for profit in the name of social sharing seems not quite 100% honest.

out.

“as long as the service/application that grabs snippets of text/content does not recompose the content in a readable format where you can read it at 100% just like you’d be if you were on the original content but offers a link to the source (content owner) instead, then it is OK.”

at what point would the ‘clipping’ cross the boundary between a ‘teaser’ to the content to a content re-purposing? if the clip gives me the answer (or the 2 minute pitch) i am looking for, i probably won’t ever go to tech crunch.

and the last i saw, there is no limit on how much i can clip or what i can clip out of a page.

interesting disruptive concept, and there seems to be enough money on the web to allow users to steal en-masse, so that it’s hard for anyone to catch all of them.

Been meaning to tell you what a valuable site and service you provide!

Downloaded Clipmarks and boy am I in love.

Although it means I can’t use Camino anymore, God I love Camino, I can blog up a storm with Clipmarks!

Thanx Much…Z

You, all wise 2.0 people over there, can enybody give me any difference betwing this and “One Note” from MS?

I know, I know. Is Ms and its not free, but… have you M. A. even try One Note?

Its way far superior to this.

My 2 cents.

(I´m on a gangsta mood today ?! )

if enough people clip techcrunch, clipmarks could get the ad dollars piggy backing on techcrunch content.
Unquate

I think you have a pretty good point, however, as long as the service/application that grabs snippets of text/content does not recompose the content in a readable format where you can read it at 100% just like you’d be if you were on the original content but offers a link to the source (content owner) instead, then it is OK.

Yes, I think if enough clips are made over a given content, Clipmarks could make a few ad dollars, pretty fine by me, yet you would not be able to read the whole content based on the snippets alone, therefore as long as you cannot meaningfully read over these clips but, instead, you are sent to Techcrunch as the content owner (the source), then it is OK, in my view.

After all this is what Google does too (as well as all other search engines out there), it just extracts parts of the content and serves the searchers with, but none of us can read the whole content based on what the search engine’s results are and still we need to click on the links to go to the original sources… etc, etc..

We’ve been told about an interesting concept called NosyJoe that is, by the way, planned to be a new breed of social search engine that semantically extracts the meaningful components in the content (meaningful keywords, phrasal components and whole meaningful sentences) and then serves the searchers in a proprietary way by linking to the source and those guys there gave us pretty much the same explanation about the relationship between content owners and content mash-ups.

My 2 cents
