Snipitron

The best solution to capture, share, and find aggregated Internet research is Snipitron! Since I suffer from age induced “memorylossannoyance” I don’t know for sure how long I have used Snipitron but trust me, like we said about Jott, Snipitron is one of those web applications that I could not live without.Snipitron is a web based solution that allows one to capture, annotate, and share Internet pages.

Think of a smart card catalogue system that is web based and shareable with either people you invite to share information with or with the public in general and you can start to imagine what Snipitron has to offer. Obviously I am understating the features that Snipitron provides in their offering by calling it a smart card catalogue system for web research. The smart card catalogue system does, however, provide one with a good starting point to conceptualize what Snipitron has to offer.

Snipitron users can collect and catalogue web pages into “projects” that allow not only capturing web pages (with complete page previews) but also providing a place for users to annotate and or comment on the pages that have been captured. In addition users can attach files as well as invite other users to share the research / projects that have been captured at Snipitron. Once a user has registered they are provided a number of tools and options for capturing web pages into projects. For PC users there is a downloadable application but the real power is in using Snipitron’s add-in for web browsers that allow one to simply click on a Snipitron icon to immediately add a page that one is browsing. It is effectively a tool that follows along as one is browsing the Internet and whenever you have found a page, link, and or file that you would like to save into a project, you can immediately click on the Snipitron icon and add the page to a project.

Starting Sunday, April 27th, 2008, as part of OMBNexGen’s weekly Sunday Summary column, we will be providing a Snipitron research project that will have all the pages used in reviewing the weekly Google Apps news. So to see a Snipitron research project in action simply click here! Don’t just take a look at a Snipitron project, go and sign up for Snipitron now. This is a web based solution everyone needs!
