Since I am not much of a coder, and also I am trying to keep my CRIMPing down to a minimum, I didn’t have a lot of interest in Quiver. Particularly since it looked very much like Notesuite, which I use regularly. However, I have been following the discussions here and I decided to give Quiver a try. I like it a lot. I particularly like the fact that notes can be organized into notebooks, something that you can do in Notesuite, but not with as nice a presentation as in Quiver. I also like the ability to insert files and links to files into a note.
However, one thing that I like about Notesuite is the bookmarklet that you can install in your browser to copy a webpage to the notebook. I have been using that as my snippet keeper for a while now.
Yaogang-Any chance of something like this?

It’s definitely possible. I have my hands full at this moment with Quiver for iOS and Quiver 2.2, but I have these on my list for future updates.
Although Quiver was built for developers, I have heard from quite a few non-programmers who like Quiver. They mostly use Markdown and rich text, some use LaTeX.

The mark of a great developer-listens to the users, and responds quickly.
Thanks.

Hi Bill,
Is this website on the publicly available WWW? If so, could you post a link? I am curious what the output looks like.
(I only just redeemed a promo code from the other thread.)
Thanks,
Steve
