Enhanced links in curation and collaboration applications

摘要

A uniform resource locator (URL) link inserted into a note or document can be enhanced through a capture service for curation and collaboration applications, including notebook applications. A local notebook application can call the capture service by sending a request for a webpage representation with a URL indicated for insertion into the note. The local notebook application can receive the representation of the content referenced by the URL in a format customized for the local client. The representation can be displayed as part of a preview window and user interface for inserting a clipping, URL or other content into a note. The capture service can take the URL sent by the local application and take a screenshot of a separately rendered webpage referenced by the URL.
