Whenever you create a note or bookmark, you will see a new file appear on your home screen named My Clippings. The My Clippings file stores all of the bookmarks, highlights, notes and clippings you have made across all your content, including any personal files you have made bookmarks or notes in.
Clip an entire article in a periodical (newspaper or magazine - or a blog)if you want. Open the blog or periodical article. Press the Menu button and select the words Clip This Article. The article will be stored in the My Clippings file on your Kindle.View the clippings file on your Kindle, or copy it to your computer as a .txt file. Once you have it on your computer, you can edit it with a text editor or word processor or even send it to someone else in an email. If you delete the My Clippings file, another one will be recreated the next time you highlight something or create a new bookmark. Clippings are nice!
