Chrome Extension Must Haves: Diigo Web Highlighter and Bookmark

 Here's another tool I use every single day I decide to do some blogging. Brought to you by Diigo (formally Furl) this extension is the ultimate organisational bookmarking and sharing tool I have found. Share links with friends, groups, social websites etc. Highlight sections you want to pay close attention to next time you visit and add notes for future visitors.

Being the Link Medic, I am scouring the Internet looking for some of the best sites I can find concerning blogging. What I love most about this extension is the ability to keep things private. Because some bookmarks I'm just saving for a short time until I can get back to them to read or get what I need then I can delete it just as fast as I added it. What I find myself doing the most is making lists to add my bookmarks to so I can organize everything I bookmark.

  The little lock icons shows me that the list is private. Adding a site to your list is as simple as clicking one button then selecting from a drop down box to find your list.

Just hit the highlighter, then drag it across text.

 Another useful feature is the Highlighter function. Let's say you're writing a report on chickens, you come across a website on farm animals that has a small portion of text about chickens in a huge list of other animals. Well just highlight the chicken section and when you come back you can find it easily. And not only that your highlighted text will show up in your Diigo Library on the bottom of the bookmark.

Another thing you can do is add notes. Apart from leaving funny ones on Google.com for other people to see. It also serves the purpose of quickly adding additional information to your bookmarked site easily and for other people to see. Or in my case, just me.

The Recap

If you feel lost in your bookmarks and don't know where anything is, it's time to get this extension. Save, Organize, Share anything, this is a must have in the bookmarking category. Indispensable tool for webmasters and bloggers, amazing tool for anyone else as well. Download it and get organized!
