Introducing the “Save to nvALT” Chrome Extension

I just published Save to nvALT, a Chrome extension for saving pages to nvALT, a note taking app for Mac OS X. Pages are saved as clean Markdown, without any fluff. Like Readability or Instapaper.

Download Save to nvALT from the Chrome Web Store.

How do I use Save to nvALT?

Click the Save to nvALT buttom in the Chrome toolbar to save the current page to nvALT.

Alternatively, you can select some text, right click and “Save note with selected text.”

What’s nvALT?

nvALT is a simple and fast note taking application. It’s an updated version of Notational Velocity.

Save to nvALT is non-intrusive

Save to nvALT is designed to be as non-intrusive as possible. Unlike most Chrome extensions, it requires no special permissions to run:

Permissions dialog

This is made possible by a new Chrome extension setting that keeps Save to nvALT disabled until you click its button.

Open Source

Save to nvALT is open source and license under the MIT license. You can view the source code on GitHub.
