What are web snippets?
When you find interesting web content that you want to look at later, you can save that content to the Web Clipboard and look at it later. The items that you save to the Web Clipboard are called snippets. You may find that saving text, links, and pictures as snippets is faster and more convenient than traditional cut and paste.
Snippets are especially handy for re-blogging bits of text from web pages. When you drag a snippet into a blog post, it is automatically formatted as a blockquote with a proper citation.
Saving snippets
Just below the back and forward buttons in your browser there is a set of buttons. Click the Web Clipboard icon to open the Web Clipboard in a sidebar.
Highlight and drag interesting URLs, pictures or text snippets from any web page in the space provided. To save a snippet without opening the Web Clipboard, select the item and right-click (Control-click) on it. Choose Send to Web Clipboard from the context menu.
Using snippets
You can drag a snippet into an email, blog post, or anything else you're writing. Open the Web Clipboard and drag the snippet of your choice into your document.
Deleting snippets
To delete a snippet, click to highlight it and press Delete. To delete all of your snippets, click Clear All.
