SnipIT allows users to email selected pieces of text in Internet Explorer. Email clients that are currently supported with SnipIT are Microsoft Outlook, Hotmail, Yahoo! Mail, and Gmail. Microsoft released this little IE add-on last week, and sites like
Download.com have it rated pretty popular already. I always find myself doing the copy and paste thing from websites into multiple text files that sit on my desktop. If they were contained in my inbox by a tool like SnipIT, I would be forced to act on them immediately. Too bad it only works in IE on a PC, because this seems like a useful little plug-in for all web users.

Doesn't seem to work with Thunderbird as the MailTo target.

I don't get the point of this. I achieve the same effect by selecting the text I'm interested in, copying it, opening an email and pasting it in. Works on every browser and email client. Am I missing the point?

No... you're not missing anything. Please go back to sleep. And quit farting under the covers.
