Clipmarks lets users share just the best parts of webpages. Using their plugin, you can bundle together your favorite selections of content from a webpage. This includes text as well as pictures and video. Submissions are then “popped” by other members of the community, with the most popular at the top. Using the plugin, you can also submit your clips to your blog.
Plum is a similar social bookmarking competitor.

Clipmarks is a Mozilla/Firefox or IE plugin that brings up an interactive clipping menu. When you scroll over text, Clipmarks highlights it and allows you to clip it to an email, to a blog – many CMSes are supported including Wordpress and Blogger – to print, or just save. The clips are stored on the Clipmarks server and can be “popped” to the front page to share with other readers.
