| Features Tooltivity's expert score for the 'Features' aspect of each extension. | 9.3 Notebook Web Clipper offers a wide range of functions.  Another unusual feature is the clean view function, where an article is clipped and ads or similar are deleted directly from the clip so that only the desired important data is saved.
