Importing references from the web shouldn’t be hard – and now it isn’t. Our new collaborative writing platform, F1000Workspace, has a nifty browser extension that allows you to instantly capture articles as you’re surfing the web, with just a click of a button.

Have you ever saved an article only to forget later on the reason why you saved it? This should no longer be a problem with F1000Workspace. The browser button allows you to highlight text and add notes to any web article. This also allows you to share your thoughts on a paper with your project collaborators or co-authors.

The best bit? You’ll be able to access saved articles and notes through any computer, as long as you’re logged in to the web app. Your notes will also show up on different formats of the article – for example, if you annotate text on the PubMed abstract of a paper, these notes will also show up on the journal’s web version as well as the PDF.

Try it out for yourself, or see how else F1000Workspace can help you with writing papers and collaborating with co-authors.
