If you are looking for a more tailored social bookmarking tool that allows you to save and share specific parts of a site, then look no further. Aptly named ClipClip allows you to cut pictures, applications or paragraphs from a site without having to bookmark the entire site. ClipClip can be though of as your own personal scrapbook—as you surf, just “clip” the parts of the pages that you find interesting, useful, or that you would like to share with your friends or a group. Instead of just saving a link, this allows you to save the exact part of the site that you had intended to bookmark, so you’ll never have to guess why you bookmarked a specific site again.
“ClipClip is, essentially, a social bookmarking tool that allows you to save and collect the sites and stuff you treasure most. Like other social bookmarking sites, it allows you to create subjects, post information, and tag the stuff you bookmark for convenience. But unlike early bookmarking sites, ClipClip allows for one further step in development – you can ‘clip’ pictures, applications, and paragraphs without having to take from the whole website itself.”
This is a great little application that allows users to save only the parts of the site that they want. This should become popular amongst a wide array of users, including those doing collaborative research online.
ClipClip is free meaning that they will probably be collecting your information for targeted advertising. Do they have a pay service that will allow you to avoid having your data collected? People are used to this type of business model but those using ClipClip for research purposes may prefer to pay.
