Clipmarks 2.0 introduces Clip-to-Blog, video clipping features


We mentioned Clipmarks way back in 2005 when we first discovered them, and thanks to a recent Vox update, we noticed the web clipping service just released a major new 2.0 upgrade.

On the surface, the site has received a complete redesign, featuring a sexy new layout and a live clippings monitor for public clips. The goodness, however, is far more than skin deep. There are three major new clipping features that should be a big boost to an already slick clipping service. The most significant is the ability to clip videos from YouTube and other video communities. The second major new feature is Clip-to-Blog which, as its name implies, allows you to instantly blog any of your clippings to a compatible blog service or platform. Hence the tip-off from Vox, since it's on the list.



The final major enhancement (but probably not the last on the list) is a new control bar that acts as a dashboard for taking action with/to your clippings. This is a rocking new feature that really adds some power to how you use Clipmarks and the things you store with the site.

Altogether, the new Clipmarks is a pretty impressive 2.0 upgrade, especially for a web 2.0 site.

That is, until I tried the game. The mechanics of the game are very simple. You are a small red square, ...
