We’ve gotten great feedback on our first version of our web clipper.  Watch the video & learn more.

Check out the new Springpad web clipper:
- The clipper now works in Internet Explorer 7
- Add a note to your springpad with an in-line dialog. We’ve gotten rid of the pesky extra pop-up.

How to Install the clipper to your browser toolbar:

Firefox, Safari, or Chrome
Drag above button to your browser’s link bar
IE7
Click View->Toolbars->Unlock the Toolbars
Turn on the “Links” Toolbar.
Right-Click the “Spring It!” button above and select “Add to Favorites”
Select the “Links” folder.
In your IE Menubar, drag the “Links” toolbar out to the left until you see “Spring It!”
IE8
Right click on the Spring It button and select “Add to Favorites”
In the “Create in” drop down menu, select “Favorites Bar”

How it works:
As you surf the web, find text, photos or links that you want to save for later.  Highlight what you’d like to clip & click on “Spring It!” in your browser’s tool bar.  A note will be added to your springpad.

We’re excited to launch the springpad bookmarklet, or “clipper”.

1. Drag this link to your browser’s link bar: Spring It!
– Supported Browsers: Firefox, Safari & Chrome.
