    Also, the Evernote Web Clipper saves all the contents of the page, not just the URL. This is awesome for two reasons:
    -If the URL ever goes bust, you still have all the data you originally clipped.
    -When you do a search in Evernote, it will search the contents of the page you clipped, not just the page title.

    Nice list, Dropbox is useful for storage and mobility, though I’ve found it more beneficial to carry around a compact external hard drive myself. But then I run the risk of losing it whilst with DropBox its much safer. Evernote is a great tool, certainly comes in handy when a site is too overdone with distractions, it brings much clarity to reading content on the web.

    Honestly, I have never used any of those extensions for blogging, actually I am blogging with Firefox, but also use Chrome quite often.

    Goes without saying that Dropbox is one of the best cloud storage solutions. I HAD to upgrade to 50 gig package–it’s just that good. My only qualm is those certain files that totally refuse to sync. Ah well. Pixlr Editor looks like my new quick and dirty photoshop solution. Tired of having to fire up the mega-engine just to add a little more contrast to a photo. Gonna cross my fingers and check out Pixlr.

      Pixlr is surely one of the best photo editors that can surely replace Photoshop for a lot of editing jobs, you should give it a try.

    I actually use none of these so far. Lots to look into here, thanks!

    I always viewed Firefox as the plugin browser, but I’ve been pleasantly surprised by how many are available for Chrome!

    Wow! The Dropbox plugin could simplify my life, I haven’t heard that already exists an extension to the Chrome. I think I should switch from the Safari to Chrome. I’ve been totally assured by your article, this change could make my blogging life more efficient.

  8. I was a die hard Firefox user for quite some time, and thought I owed FF my devotion for saving me from the wretched Internet Explorer. However right now I cannot do without Google Chrome. This is often great. At least one stare upon exactly that in it and we are greatly surprised. We are precisely fascinated by this kind of tips. Anyone appreciate users insert, and significance your precious time in this. Please keep adding information

    On the Evernote web clipper, it is nice for saving articles for later reading. But, using it to compile ideas for blog posts… that’s one of my fave uses of Evernote. :-)

  10. Till now, I only use Evernote. But I am planning to use others too. I never heard about Rapporative. Let’s see how they will work.
