Was looking for an alternative to Clippings for Chrome and this is the closest so far. A lot more basic but the same functionality. You can export to txt. Would be nice to be able to import as well but other than that pretty good.

I was looking for an extension to paste one of several multi-line blurbs from the context menu, and, after an extensive search, this is the only one I found. It seems to work absolutely great (once you remember to refresh your page after creating a new blurb). The only problem I've found that, on long blurbs (> 500 characters), the entire blurb doesn't show from the app. However, the entire blurb DOES paste correctly when pasted from the context menu. I've written him to see if he'll fix the blurb "show" problem, so we'll see.

BRILLIANT!~ This extention is exactly what i was looking for!!! i can add labels to blurbs (btw nice word for a copied instance :^) ), i can copy groups of paragraphs with blank lines and enter signs!!! also i like the classic html style of the extention - nothing excessive - pure functionality and minimalism! Last but important: works perfectly fine on sites i need it! Love the soft, thanks to the creator, god blems! 🙏🙏🙏
