Cloud Thunder (ID: 00000083d4551ead) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 06/28/2022 The instructions are wrong. It said that to use it on Chrome I need to use `ctrl+shift+s` but that opened the web clipper, on Chrome it actually used `alt+s` (like Firefox).

Bench Mark (ID: 0000003d719d2279) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 09/12/2021 Very promising, here some suggestions and features I would like to have: - merge all the highlighted fragments into a single document text - add & export some annotations - see all my highlights on the original page when I come back to the page and if the url is still in my Quotebacks vault --- For the shortcut issue you need to assign it in chrome settings, here chrome://extensions/shortcuts

Kevin Murray (ID: 0000001ede6f76c3) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 03/14/2021 This looks very promising. I could create a quote from a page, but it wouldn't show up in the QuoteBack Library. This is using Chrome for Windows.
