Wired Marker is a Firefox add-on that lets you highlight text on a page in one of 8 colors. Next time you load the page the plugin will remember your annotations and reload them for you. If you don't like the default colors, you can also customize them. --- A bit more advanced in functionality than I first thought.

[moreIt's no wonder why the Scrapbook Firefox extension was a winner in the recent Extend Firefox contest Capture all tabs Save every web page you've got open in one browser window, perfect for when your latest Google session led to a bevy of tabs you want to check out offline, annotate and search later. In-depth capture Capture links out from a web page up to four levels deep. Save an entire web site to your scrapbook. Filter out URLs (like ads, for instance) by domain, directory or string. Links between the captured pages are preserved for offline surfing, and a site map document is automatically generated for a bird's eye view of the site structure. Download linked files Select a section of a web page that lists music tracks, for instance, and tell Scrapbook to download all the .MP3 files on the page only, and ignore all the .WAVs. Sticky notes Add a floating or position fixed sticky note directly on a captured page, referring to particular elements of that page. Inline comments Select a line of text and add an inline comment that appears as a tooltip annotation when you mouse over that text. Scrapbook's a powerful extension that turns Firefox into a feature-ful notes manager. For an in-depth look at all of its features, check out Andrew Giles-Peters Scrapbook tutorial (PDF). How does Scrapbook compare to your note-taking tool? Any thoughts or questions about the extension? Let us know in the comments or to tips at lifehacker.com. But most of all, have fun scrapbooking!]

Blue Organizer. The Basics
- You can now assign a category to any of your favorite pages, even if BlueOrganizer doesn't recognize it.
- Search using natural language: Type author is McCarthy to find books by this author.
Snipd, a Web clippings service we profiled in September, has just opened up to everyone. Its claim to fame is that it lets you clip bits of the Web including text, images, and videos, all without having to download any software or register for an account. The first time you use it via its tiny bookmarklet, it simply creates an account for you, which can be claimed later on.
One of the things that separates it from something like Evernote, is that your snippings can be found in a public directory--at least by default. It fully supports keeping items private, which you can change later on. However, you're encouraged to publicly share things for the social element. Just like FriendFeed people can follow you and track your latest additions in a chronological flow, complete with comments and favorites.
Besides its utility as a social-clipping tool, Snipd lets you mark whatever page you're on for reading later. This emulates some of the versatility of the popular Firefox Extension Read It Later (which updated this morning). However, in Snipd's case, you get e-mailed the entire page.
Snipd's real threat still comes from Evernote and FriendFeed. Evernote has a product that lets you clip standard bits of the Web while offering a viable alternative to paid word processing applications. Meanwhile, FriendFeed brings a large team of developers (including ex-Googlers), which results in a rapid release cycle. It also offers a stream of content that flows even when users are not implicitly using it. To get past these two the best thing Snipd can do is offer better tools to make Web clippings that more engaging to make and read.
See also: Yoono, Clipmarks, JetEye, and Diigo

Snipd lets you clip bits and pieces of a site to share the parts you want.
