Evernote Extension for Chrome Ready

Users of Evernote and Chrome can now combine their love into one great Chrome extension. Evernote just released their web-clipping extension for the browser which allows users a plethora of new tools. The main feature is the web-clipping tool which allows users to take a snapshot of the webpage they are currently on and have it uploaded to their Evernote account for later using; clipping also preserves any links that were on the clipped page.

Evernote’s full description of their new product:

The Evernote Chrome Extension is the best way to remember all of the great stuff you see online. Forget about bookmarks and open tabs, save the actual web page–text, links, images and all with a single click.
Save your favorite content:
• Article clips: Click the extension when viewing a blog or news site, and it will automatically save the whole article.
• Selection clips: Hightlight the text, links and images that you want to save, then click the extension.
• Full page clips: Grab the entire page with a single click.
• Clip URL: Choose the Clip URL option to grab just the website link.

Find what you’ve saved:
Click on the Evernote icon to browse and search through your entire Evernote account, as well as see all the pages that you’ve clipped from the domain that you’re currently visiting.

Simultaneous Search:
Simultaneously search through your Evernote account whenever you search on Google, Bing or Yahoo. The number of Evernote results are displayed below the search bar and as a badge on the extension icon. Enable in the extension settings.

Additional information:
