Sort of related. Does anyone know of any note apps that will let you select and area of web page, and drag it into the note. I just want easily make a scrap book of relevant info from web pages I visit. The solution I know of, Screen shot, saving, loading, and so on has too many steps. I just want something that will let me select and drag into the note. And that will look exactly like I see on the webpage.
Bonus, if it lets me drag not only rectangular boxes, but actually adjust the box so its not cutting off lines, or other content. Sort of like pinterest, but not for just images, but text also. Hyperlinked to the actual source page would be nice too.

- Vinnl 8y agoNot sure about your OS, but on Ubuntu and many Linux distributions you can press Ctrl+Shift+PrtScrn to select a region of your screen to screenshot and copy it to your clipboard. I commonly use a workflow of Ctrl+Shift+PrntScrn, select a region, then Ctrl+V to paste the screenshot where I need it - really low friction, and surprisingly many websites support pasting images. (I suppose other OS's have similar shortcuts as well, so if you use something else, this might be worth Googling for.) Otherwise, I think Pocket might be exactly scrapbook-collector-type thing you're looking for?
