Summary

Pluck it, see it, share it. Your friends will thank you.

Pluck lets you select only the elements you want to share, preview how they look together, and share to Facebook, Twitter, or anywhere else with a link.

Pluck is still in development but give it a try and let us know what you think. The idea is that you don’t always want to share an entire article and may want to just grab a quote, a few paragraphs, or an image.

Some content (like videos) may be hard to pluck because of site construction and browser limitations. Here are a few tips:

-Sometimes Plucking the text you want is easier when you start from right to left (backwards highlighting) -Play around with where to hover your mouse to become a better Plucker -Pluck saves your editing so you can preview your Pluck page and go back if you want to make changes -Some websites are just un-Pluckable :(

Doesn't work. Server doesn't respond. Looks like it was abandoned.

This is awesome; I love it! The only thing I would change is to improve the formatting of the selected content. I can see how it could be challenging, because you don't know how much content will be selected, but I think it's necessary because what you're left with is too underwhelming, for lack of a better word. I would even change the result screen to have a dark background, so it wouldn't seem so empty.
