en Amazing lightweight but super useful tool. I can't live without it now. 2024 EDIT: Three years later and still perfect. This is the most underrated extension in the webstore.

en After discovering Research Notes (RN) several months ago, I now use it whenever I open a web browser. It is the best extension for storing notes about individual web pages on a computer (not someone's server!) and comparing them later within topics, further refined by tags. • At first, I used RN just to store notes for future references when visiting a web page of interest to me. • Then, I found it was very helpful to see web pages (actually, their clickable URLs) about offerings on a product or service I am shopping for, with my notes, grouped under one topic. • Eventually, because RN is so well-designed, reliable, and easy to use, it became my primary tool for searching the web for articles and books related to my science project. While still in the RN, I can group, sort, and compare search results to decide which ones to keep for reference or acquire materials they describe. The ability to save quotations and images from a web page helps their use as sources. • RN also allows me to save its data in a spreadsheet for further slicing and dicing. Alternatively, I can export RN data to a file and import it to (or merge with) RN on another computer.

WARNING: This extension just went crazy, creating close to 30 new _empty_ folders in my bookmarks. Developer, please update your app!

This app is wonderful, and is hands down the best free extension I have ever stumbled across. I feel like it sounds like i'm being hyperbolic, but this app legitimately improved my quality of life, and has made my research-heavy workload far more productive. Is this app the reason I got a raise? Distinctly possible. Either way, I definitely gained office clout for recommending this add-on to my coworkers. Bravo, app developers. Bravo.

Unfortunately, it doens't work with pdfs. It does higlight webpages and saves it, but if you try to highlight a pdf it just does nothing. Which is incredibly disappointing as pdfs are the main way researchers read research.

Great notes app that works across multiple webpages. Data persists if you turn off and on the extension, and can import/export notes easily.
