Evernote unveils bookmarking tool for website owners

Evernote, the popular clipping and note-taking service, has announced the availability of a new bookmarking tool called Site Memory. Unlike existing browser-based Evernote clipping methods (like add-ons and the bookmarklet), Site Memory is a button which site owners and maintainers display directly on their own pages.

As a way to promote Evernote, Site Memory is a great idea -- since it will no doubt lead to new users who see the button on sites like Boing Boing. In return, the most popular sites displaying the button will be mentioned in Evernote news updates every couple of weeks.

As an actual tool, however, I'm not sure how compelling Site Memory is.

After all, most Evernote users probably already have either an extension or a bookmarklet which they're utilizing quite happily. Site Memory doesn't appear to bring any new functionality to the table -- it merely adds clipped items directly to a notebook called Site Memory.

If you're an Evernote user, give it a shot on the Site Memory page. What do you think? Useful? Not so much? Sound off in the comments!
