Share and Bookmark easily with Clipmarks and Ibrii

Back in the day, there was the pencil and paper. For taking down notes.

Back in the day, there was a thing called the bookmark. For dog earring where you left off in a book or in your research or whatever.

Now in the present, we still use those. In my generation though, there is a thing called the internet. The mother of all information providing in a snap. When you come across all this information, you would like to have a way to notedown and bookmark and hopefully share your finds.

And that ladies and gentlemen is where Clipmarks and Ibrii come in.

I came across Clipmarks about 3 years back.

The first time i did, i was fascinated. What i love bout the concept of Clipmarks? You know how when you surf around on the web, there maybe some sites whereby not all the content is something that you require. Perhaps only a portion is what you really need or interests you. Could be a photo, a line or a video. Whatever. Bookmarking is great but i personally would like to note down why i bookmark a link in the first place. With Clipmarks you can do just that.

Originally with Clipmarks you need to install it into your browser, only then you will be able to clip your interesting materials. But now since Clipmarks has just affiliated themselves with Amplify. It’s just a bookmark click away.

 

 

 

Now comes along Ibrii.

I’m sure Ibrii has been around for a while, however i only got my hands on it just about a couple of days ago. And i have to say i love it!

 

This is what Ibrii will look like on any browser. A column on the right will pop open and from there just start jotting down your notes. Drag images straight off from any website. Highly the text, bold, underline, do whatever you wish.

So far online.. these are the only two services that i have found that provides this kind of social and convenient bookmarking/clipping/not taking. But if anyone knows anymore please let me know.

 

Difference

Can be installed on IE and Firefox	Installed on IE, Firefox, Chrome
Has it’s own widget	N/A
Social sharing ability	Social Sharing Ability
Friendly	Friendly (can be buggy cause it’s still new)
Registration required	Registration not required

Now the biggest difference between the two, to me anyway is that ibrii, allows you to continuously edit one particular note. Where as Clipmarks, once you’ve saved it, that’s it. You can’t add on more. With Ibrii, even after saving i can still add on more stuff into my note.

Oh and a lil trivia. Ibrii was actually set to replace Google Notebook (also something i used before and thoroughly enjoyed)

I still like using Clipmarks, since that’s where i started. But since everything of mine is now on Google Chrome, I think Ibrii has won my heart. Until of course clipmarks decides to create a Chrome extension

Do give them both a try, i’m quite certain your the sharing if information will be a lot more interesting.
