- What's going on everyone?
My name's Larry Snow, and in this video we're gonna be
taking a look at the Evernote Web Clipper.
Probably the greatest thing since sliced bread.
You think I'm kidding, but I'm actually being serious,
and you'll soon find out what it can do for you
coming up next.
Here's the point of all of this
with the Evernote Web Clipper,
and why it's a fantastic tool.
Because, with all the minutia, and all the information
that we get on a daily basis,
if we're organizing our thoughts on a particular subject,
if we're collecting information,
if we're trying to organize invoices,
if we're working on a particular project
that's taking up all our time and resources,
and we need to get it all organized, and we need to share it
with other members on that project,
this is where Web Clipper comes in.
In order to use the Evernote Web Clipper,
you actually do need to have an Evernote account,
so go to evernote.com, sign up for a free account,
and let's take a quick look at the plans that they have.
They have Basic, 60 megabytes.
They have Plus, which is $35 a year,
which is the one that I use for one gigabyte of space,
and then they top of at $70 a year
for 10 gigabytes of space with all of these lovely features.
Once you get your Evernote account set up,
then we can start looking at the Evernote Web Clipper.
To get the Evernote Web Clipper,
you gotta go over to the Chrome Web Store,
and get over to the Chrome Web Store,
let me just click out of that for a second.
You go over to this left-hand corner where it says Apps
in the Chrome Store, and, by the way, Evernote Web Clipper
is available for Safari, Firefox, and, I believe, Android.
So click on the show apps icon over here on your browser.
It'll open up this page, and you click on Web Store.
You click on that, and then you type in
Evernote Web Clipper.
Usually it's the top thing 'cause it's so popular.
Alright, once you're on this page, you'll have an
ADD TO CHROME blue button.
I already have the green button
'cause I already have it installed.
Click on the ADD TO CHROME, it'll say, yes,
you wanna verify this, and you say, yes,
and then you'll have a little icon that looks like
an elephant's head on your browser window.
Not to be confused with the Evernote,
if you already have Evernote,
it'll be on your Mac or PC window bar at the top,
but not in the browser.
Enough with the administrative stuff,
let's get to the fun stuff.
Over on my YouTube channel, and I have a video up,
and look what it can do.
I'll click on that little icon for the Evernote Web Clipper,
a little pop-up window shows up,
and it automatically knows it's a YouTube video.
It'll store the link.
It'll store a thumbnail image of your video.
It will give you the description with all of the links,
and it will give you all the comments.
How cool is that, right?
Then, since it's connected to your Evernote account,
you can organize it by notebooks.
I'll type in youtube, and I'll click Create new notebook,
and I'll say create, oh, I'll enter names, sorry,
I was searching for youtube.
I'll type in youtube.
I'll click Create.
Now it'll be organized in my YouTube notebook
inside Evernote.
I'll click Save, and maybe we'll take a look at that
a little bit later.
The next feature it has, including the related notes,
is the Share option.
I can share a note to a particular person
that I've connected with, or I can send it off to LinkedIn,
Facebook, Twitter, all public, or I can just share the URL
to a particular person in an email, whatever,
and so they can view it just like that.
Let me just go to another example.
I'm over on my website now, and I have a blog open,
and it knows it's an article so it knows between
YouTube and blogs, and I can have choices here.
I can say Article, which it'll just focus,
I don't know if you can see it on the screen here,
but there are two bars going down the side kind of shadowed,
and it says, this is what I'm gonna capture for you,
is this what you want?
Or you can do Simplified article,
which it'll take it out of that,
put it behind its own background,
and just take out all the other stuff.
It'll take it off the sidebars, the header,
and all that stuff.
Just make it nice and simple, or it can do
the entire blog page, including the sidebar
and the navigation, or I can just bookmark this URL,
or I can just take a screenshot.
I'm just gonna do an article, so I'll just take
the piece that I want, and I can put that in my notebook,
and I'll just click Save.
Done, simple as that.
I cannot say enough good things about Evernote Web Clipper.
A, it's free, and so if you have an Evernote account
that's free, and you have Web Clipper that's free,
what's better than that, right?
So go check it out.
Go to evernote.com and install the Chrome extension,
or whatever browser extension you want
for the Evernote Web Clipper.
