Copy As Hyperlink: Simplify Copying and Pasting with Hyperlinks
Copy As Hyperlink is a free Chrome extension developed by Frederick Hewett from Cambridge, MA. This handy add-on falls under the Browsers category, specifically Add-ons & Tools. Its purpose is to streamline the process of copying and pasting text from webpages by automatically creating a hyperlink to the original page.
To use Copy As Hyperlink, simply follow these steps. First, select the desired text from the webpage you want to link to. This can be the article headline or any other text you wish to include. If no text is selected, the extension will automatically use the page title. Next, click on the extension's icon and a small window will briefly appear saying "Link copied". Finally, paste the copied text into your destination document, and it will appear as a clickable hyperlink to the webpage you copied from.
For even faster access, you can use a hotkey to invoke the extension. The default hotkey is Alt-Shift-L. With Copy As Hyperlink, copying and pasting text with hyperlinks has never been easier.
