Jeder gängige Browser hat eine eingebaute Möglichkeit, Webseiten in einem speziellen Lesemodus darzustellen. Nun bringt auch der #WebClipper von #Obsidian diese Funktion mit einer übersichtlichen Formatierung.

Der #WebClipper von #Obsidian ist eine leistungsfähige Erweiterung für den Webbrowser, die ich häufig auch bloß zum Einfügen eines vorab in einer Vorlage formatierten Markdown-Links zu einer Website samt kurzer Beschreibung nutze.

Using the Web Clipper with the Joplin Note-Taking App

Joplin is my favorite note taking app. It allows me to save ideas and content across all the platforms I use everyday. In my case that’s Linux, MacOS and iOS. Joplin has really revolutionized and organized those notes whether they’re a daily journal or the latest development I come across while I’m out walking or sitting at my desk reading. Until recently I had not used Joplin’s ‘Web Clipper.’ Joplin Web Clipper allows saving web pages and screenshots from your browser to Joplin. The ability to use the Web Clipper has added a new dimension to my notetaking.

It’s easy to use but first you need to enable it in the software. On my Linux computer that involves opening the Joplin app and navigating to the ‘Tools’ menu which is at the far right next to ‘Help.’ Then select ‘Options’ which is at the top and navigate to ‘Web Clipper’ option which is on the left and second from the last at the bottom left. Then ‘Enable’ the clipper service. Install the extension for Google Chrome or Firefox. On MacOS the settings to enable Web Clipper are on the ‘Settings’ menu at the far left under the ‘Joplin’ menu. There is a Safari web extension for using Web Clipper if that is your preferred browser.

The Web Clipper enhances Joplin’s functionality by enabling users to seamlessly save web content for later reference. Here are a few key benefits:

With a simple click, you can capture articles, blog posts, research papers, and other web content, ensuring that valuable information is stored in one organized place. Saved content is available offline, making it easy to access important information without relying on an internet connection. By having all your research and resources in one location, you can streamline your workflow and increase productivity. Joplin’s end-to-end encryption ensures that your data remains secure and private, unlike some other note-taking applications.

Using the Web Clipper is easy. Once the option is enabled, open the Joplin application and then navigate with your web browser to the information you want to save to your notebook. Click the Joplin Web Clipper icon in your browser’s toolbar.

You can select which notebook you want to add the content to at the bottom of the dialog box. Then you can choose how you will save the content from the options displayed which include. Clip simplified page, clip complete page (Markdown), clip complete page (HTML), clip selection, clip screenshot or clip URL.

I chose to clip complete page in Markdown and I am presented with the options to save my notebook in ‘Articles’ or another notebook. Joplin uses the web article title for the title. That can be edited and then click to ‘Confirm’ and the article is saved for later reference.

The Joplin Web Clipper is an invaluable tool for anyone looking to save and organize web content efficiently. By capturing and storing information directly into Joplin, you can enhance your productivity, ensure offline access to critical resources, and maintain the privacy and security of your data. Whether you’re a student, researcher, or professional, the Joplin Web Clipper can help you streamline your workflow and keep your digital life organized
