frecklefaceredhead 0 Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 When clipping websites I'm wondering what happens when that website is no longer there? 6 months from now on my notes will I get the big 404 error of website not found on some of my webclips? Especially ones that are articles and it only clips page 1 to Evernote and I have to click page 2 at bottom of webclip and it opens up the website.What would be a work around for this?
Level 5* Metrodon 2,188 Posted May 24, 2011 Level 5* Posted May 24, 2011 When you clip a page you are storing it in your Evernote account - it doesn't therefore matter if the original site stays there or not.
frecklefaceredhead 0 Posted May 24, 2011 Author Posted May 24, 2011 Thank you Metrodon for you response. Very helpful. That was what I was thinking but I recently stored some articles from nytimes.com and inc.com and I noticed at the bottom of my clipped note was the link to page 2, page 3, etc of the article. So, I was afraid that if those additional pages ever went offline that I wouldn't be able to read the rest of the article.

I always use that option before clipping. Some other websites have an option to "print article." That option usually brings the whole thing up in one page -- and it has the advantage of showing less advertisements -- and you can clip from there.
Level 5* Metrodon 2,188 Posted May 25, 2011 Level 5* Posted May 25, 2011 Yup, I tend to use Safari on my Mac and the Reader functionality (which it looks like is being added to with Lion) is great for pulling the the core of an article out and making it more readable. You can email it then straight into Evernote.Lots of ways to skin a cat.
