Evernote Clearly, How I Love Thee



So it's like one massive swipe file? Digging it


EDIT: Just checked it out, this is totally awesome, thanks for the share!
 
I like how it grabs multiple pages, very cool.

I like to look at ads and stuff, so I probably won't use it that often, but the Forbes site is so out of control I would use it there if I wanted to read a full article.
 
Used this and Evernote for a while and got an godlike amount of things organized. The problem was 99% of it had absolutely no relevance or benefit to my life and it was a huge waste of time. This won't be the case for everyone but just be on the look out for it. When I cut away the fat and just focused on the things that would have benefits I didn't need any organizational system or stimulants.

This won't be the case everyone obviously and Evernote really is a great piece of software but just make sure you aren't just using it as an organized time waster.
 
I can't remember the name of it, but there used to be a website aggregation service that formatted the pages just this nicely with no ads (the part that did them in) and it was extremely well received... But it got sued out of existence.

The difference here is that with this evernote saves their content, without ads, for you; and the old one just let you view their content live with no ads...

As a publisher I should be even MORE pissed at the idea of evernote+clearly; not only does it strip me of my dough, but damn, I can't even make edits on the site they believe is mine?

I don't see a long and glorious future for this tool. Pretty though.

You can make edits.

It does strip you of your shitty banner ads. One day people will realize that CTAs have to occur in content, people have been banner blind for years.

It's simply your browser choosing what to display from an HTML document.

Again, the future of the web is building your CTA into your content, not shitty banner ads no one looks at anyway.

Really? So if I, the website owner, wanted to make a change on page X but you saved page X to your evernote account last week, then I can change the page out inside your evernote account? Very interesting. Evernotes' servers must constantly hum.

Oh don't worry about me, G, Adsense is but one of many rev streams my sites use these days.

You can't edit a saved copy.

I don't even know why you would consider this an issue. You can't edit websites people save to their local PCs either.

Which is my point. The old way, that got sued out of existence, didn't offend webmasters with this additional detail.
