Highlight
Highlighting lets you denote important information on a
page, just like highlighting in a book, but with Diigo, the highlighted text
will be conveniently saved to your library as well.
There are some important things for me to denote on my
recipe. My wife doesn’t like pineapple, my grandfather can’t have eggs or
chocolate, and I don’t like coconut very much, so I highlight those items on
the recipe to let me know I need to deal with them.
Highlight by clicking “Highlight” on the Diigolet. Then
select the text you want to highlight. The text will be visually highlighted
and the text is now stored in your library. It’s that easy. Click the button again to exit highlighter mode.
You can also change the color of a highlight by clicking the
downward-pointing arrow next to “Highlight” and choosing a color. Colors are
useful for differentiating different types of highlights. I will use a
different color for each of the different people I need to consider.
Jeff Johnson on 18 Jan 09On Clipmarks.com, you can see clips of text, images or video about all sorts of topics that other people find while surfing the web. The idea is that through each other, we can learn more, know more and enjoy more than we could possibly do alone. As you find people who post clips that interest you, make them a Guide. Think of your Guides as a team of web editors you choose to consistently deliver you clips of things they find on the web.
