Updates: Clipmarks and Lijit
1. March 2007 – 00:43 byClipmarks
Annotation and bookmarking service Clipmarks has launched version 2.0 of its service yesterday and has got even better now.
Noteworthy improvements are:
- Clipping videos from YouTube and other sites
- Blogging and emailing clips without saving them first
- The browser add-on has just one button instead of four
- Clipping single sentences
- Limit of 1,000 characters for publicly accesible clips
There is a short demo explaining most features on the site. Also Robert Scoble has two videos up on PodTech, an interview with Eric Goldstein and a demo of Clipmarks.
Lijit
Lijit on this blog again. 
And why not, there are two new features worth mentioning, I think.
First, Lijit automatically crawls users’ blogrolls now. That’s really useful if you consider that Lijit is searching your own network: people and sites you trust and recommend.
Also Lijit provides some stats now. So you can see what people are searching through your network and which sources they click. Will be interesting to see.

I used to use Clipmarks over a year ago. Then all of a sudden it stopped working. submitted ‘clips’ didn’t got saved on hte site. now I tried it again. And it’s still the same. Does it work for you? The Videoclipping and sending directly to the blog is neat.
Shame it doesn’t work for me. Back then Eric Goldstein and me we tried to sort it out. but it never worked again. bummer.

Marcel, that’s very strange. I never had any problems with Clipmarks. I think it works even better with the new add-on now. It also seems to be faster.
But you have an excellent alternative, don’t you?
