• Updated Springpad Clipper Simplifies Saving Things from the Web « Springpad Blog

  tags: SpringPad

  • We’ve updated the clipper to allow you to save things to Springpad with fewer clicks. And, we’ve kept your favorite clipper features intact:

     

    • Auto-detects the type of thing you’re trying to save, from a bookmark to a recipe to a product
    • Allows you to re-categorize what you’re saving
    • Includes any text that you’ve highlighted when you open the clipper
    • Lets you choose a photo thumbnail from the page you’re clipping
    • Allows you to add tags & file directly into a notebook
    • Works with any browser

     

  • Plus, we’ve added a couple of new features:

     

    • “Pop-out” the clipper to open it in a new window, allowing you copy content from the page you’re clipping into the thing you’re saving
    • When you define the page as a product or movie, we’ll automatically save the related information without you doing any additional work
