It doesn’t disturb you when you’re reading. You don’t have to stop, go to a different page or to your physical notes and then back to reading in order to highlight and gather information. You can simply collect all the information from the page you’re reading at one time and then process it later into your note taking software.

You can find people who are looking up the same information as you are and learn more from them. Build on their ideas, see what other folks are finding important and why.

It’s not just somewhere to store links to read later, but to use Glasp you actually have to start processing whatever it is that you’re reading, taking note and highlighting.

Then you’re going to want to head over to the Glasp home page, go to “My Highlights”, find the article you want to grab your quotes from and select “Copy Content” in the top right.
