Google Keep is sort of like online "sticky notes" or a notepad. But when you add the extension, it becomes a super-easy-to-use tool to keep track of information you want to use later, AND the web page it came from - perfect for collecting research and citation information!
And if you take advantage of Google Keep's "Label" feature, you can instantly tag notes for particular projects - which lets you instantly collect together all your notes about a particular project or topics!
Follow this link to the extension.
Follow the directions to install it.
This makes it always visible and easy to click.
Keep will make a new note that contains the text you highlighted and the link to the site the info is on.
*Make sure you click "Create Note" or Keep won't save it!
When you find interesting information on the open web, highlight the sentence you want to use.
Built into Keep is the Labels feature. This lets you add "tags" to a note. As you create labels, they appear on the left pane of your Keep window.
If you click on a label in the left pane, Keep sorts through all your Keep notes and pulls together only the ones that you added the label to.
Since you can add more than one label to a note, you can have a single note be part of multiple projects.
When you use the Extension to make a new note in Keep, you can click the Label icon on the pop-up note and add one or more labels to the note. If you use Keep to track your research for multiple topics or projects, you can easily add a label on the go. So if you happen across some good info for Project B while researching Project A, you can highlight, add a Project B label, and easily go back to that page later when it's time to work on Project B!
