Have you ever been looking through the web, stumbled upon something you want to share and realize you’re not sure how to do so? If you download the PullQuote extension through the google chrome web store, you have an easy way to do just that; share. All you have to do is highlight with your mouse cursor, the text you want to share, and an option box will appear asking if you want to tweet, file, copy, or link the highlighted text.

If you choose the tweet option, the extension will pull up another window directly to twitter and give you a couple of option. First, you can tweet the direct link to the page, or you can “style” it. The style option enables you to create a display of the highlighted text, with a colored background and multiple font options.

If you choose the file option, the same window will open up, presenting the same earlier option, but will automatically scroll down to the filing option. This will file the web page link under your quotes on the pull quote app page. It will also give you the chance to add tags to the link.

If you choose the copy option, the link and quote will be copied to your clipboard, enabling you to paste the quote into another document, presentation, etc.

If you choose the link option, the link to the specific webpage will be copied to your clipboard, enabling you to paste solely the link into whatever you choose.
