Highlight and send info from web pages with Awesome Highlighter

We’re all about sharing here so this Lifehacker tip is perfect. I’ve lost count of how many links and web pages James and I shoot back and forth when we find good info on mobile tech. Often, the key nugget in the page can be overlooked or buried where one of us can’t find it. Makes us read the whole thing and that’s too much like work. Enter the Awesome Highlighter web site. Using it, you enter the URL of a web site or page and then highlight any important text in the color of your choice. Once done, you get a short URL to send to a friend; that URL will show them the web page with your highlights. You can give the same info to your Twitter friends via the website too; there’s a Twitter link to post what you’ve highlighted. For the moment, I’ll stick with saving web pages in OneNote and highlighting there, but for web users, this is another alternative. Here’s the URL of the highlight I show in the picture if you want to get a better idea of how this works.
