Clipmarks

This service allows users to create bookmarks, but with an extra twist. In this service a bookmark is called a clipmark. A clipmark consists of a Title, Tags, Remarks, Folder (think category) and some privacy stuff (make clipmark public) and most importantly a Clip. The clip is something copied from the from a website. The user can select a piece of text, an images, etc. to be copied and clipped. With each clip there is a corresponding URL where the clip came from. An interesting feature is using the Clip It function in a Firefox extension. This allow the user to moise over items in a webpage, clicking an item and then saving it as clipmark.

An user can also view clipmarks created by other users.
