Scrible New Tool

I came across another great tool for anyone, teacher or student.  Scrible is a new Bookmarklet tool with no downloading or installing anything.  Its even very versatile and virtually works with all browsers.  Why would you use such a tool? Below is a great example and I got it directly from Scrible’s site.  I couldn’t have explained it any better then they did.

  • Highlighter and Note iconHighlight & Annotate Web Pages
  • Tag and Search iconTag, Filter & Easily Search Web Research
  • Collaboration in the cloud iconSave, Share & Collaborate in the Cloud

scrible: collaborate on research with power & ease

  • richly annotate web pages in multiple colors & styles
  • save web research online & access it from anywhere
  • use simple keywords to search full text of saved research
  • use tags to quickly and easily organize research by topic
  • easily share annotated web research with others via email
  • new create project-specific digital research libraries
  • new set permissions to selectively share libraries with others

The software has only been out since may 4th so don’t forget to try it out and give feedback.  I have only been playing with it for a day but two things I think are awesome. One is the legend feature where you can label different colors for different things. Second is the export feature (only available in IE so far). Sad smile
