Obsidian Clipper

The "Obsidian Clipper" Chrome extension allows you to easily save articles from the web as notes in your Obsidian vault.

Description

The extension utilizes Readability.js to extract the content of the article, as well as important metadata such as the domain, title, timestamp, excerpt, and word count. This allows you to easily organize and access your saved articles within your Obsidian vault. The extension is simple and easy to use, with a one-click saving feature that quickly adds the article to the your vault. This is a great tool for researchers, students, and anyone who wants to save and organize articles for later reading and reference.
