Clipmarks for research


Clipmarks is:

The NY-based team at Clipmarks
just launched 2.0 of their product, a unique web clipping system that
allows you to take just the paragraphs, sentences, or multimedia you
want from a page while maintaining a link to the original document.

Their CEO, Eric Goldstein, was a lawyer who was fed up with cutting
and pasting citations into a Word file only to discover that the 100
page mess became unreadable and unusable. He and his team launched a
first iteration of the product, which Marshall looked at months ago,
but the latest version is considerably more fully-featured and quite
interesting.

I had the same thing, while I was doing research I often found that I wanted to copy and paste references, but at the end of the day I couldn’t remember where they came from! Traditional referencing is ridiculously out of date… What? You’re referencing to a book page? ugh! How do you expect me to read that!
