#ourstickys

There's nothing fannish to do with it, but r/TranscribersOfReddit is an awesome volunteer subreddit that helps people with the visual impairments enjoy stuff like text-in-images by commenting transcriptions of them. r/FanficWit would love volunteers that'd do that for their memes, I bet!

I've used this extension for online note-taking too. It probably has a ton of applications to it that I haven't even thought about. So I'm just including this into the catch-all flair of 'Fanworks - Resources' bc it can be used for so much.

First, where to get it: On Firefox and for Chrome, its normal location in the extensions play store is gone (the links I've found are all broken), so try to get it on softpedia.com.

I found the developer who created the extension, u/EffEPi77 from their reddit post about the tool 4 years ago here in /r/SideProject . Some of those features they describe in that post don't work anymore. Because, from u/0mnipath in /r/chrome_extensions in this post 2 years ago, apparently the developer, Fabrizio Parrella, passed away. RIP to this fantastic programmer.

So until there's a better alternative (which nobody seems to have really made yet), this is why OurStickys is great.

This is how it works on Chrome. Once installed, forever more you can just right-click anywhere on a web page and you get this.

Then you get this little box where I wrote silly words. 

You can change the box's size via dragging the lower right corner, you can change the color to other soft pastels in settings (when you hover over the box, a gear icon shows up - the gear = settings options)

The pin icon is extremely useful. If you don't select it, it stays in the same spot on your screen when you scroll. If you select it, you've stuck it to that specific location on the web page. I love this feature.
