Hey there community. Im tired of saving stuff to read later without activating it.
I wish to get deeper in my workflow and "read and take notes" on what i save for later. If no note is taken, that's a signal of no interest
My ideal workflow would be :
write notes on highlighted content => like google doc does https://drive.google.com/file/d/1eM5OzFyzExD1_7JAyz3F2h4YNvDS18yR/view?usp=drivesdkRight now, my solution would be a trello board and taking notes on comments, but i would need to have some sort of scripting to extract text and format from article.
Any ideas ? cheers
I use Evernote web clipper for that. On desktop, I can just highlight the text and mouse right click to save the selection, or if I want to leave a note, then click the extension button and write a note in 'Add remark' field. (Evernote web clipper supports all the major browsers)
On iPhone I can send the highlighted text to Evernote with the native share feature (the app needs to be installed first) I'm not sure about the Android phones, but I assume it'll be similar as Evernote has Android app as well.
I use Instapaper for everything you mentioned. It saves all the text and images offline, and I can highlight + annotate on them. It syncs everywhere, and works with videos. Not with PDFs tho, unfortunately.
Have you tried https://bear.app ? I am absolutely in love with it.
Hey @mohbln, thx for the tip, looking nice. can i throw in a pdf ?
Is everything searchable to keyword or even regex level ? (assume i pay the pro version)
I’ve found everything to be searchable on hashtags or keywords. Not sure about regex.
