Tracking your research
Register a personal account in the product before trying to use the Clip feature.
Clips are public by default, but you can "edit" to make a clip private.
You might enjoy searching "Everyone's Clippings" to see what people have found before you. Try something famous, like "Elvis Presley" or haymarket massacre. The clippings that you find can be difficult to see, so click the clip for the full resolution image, then use the share button to download the JPG image (which allows you to zoom in).
If you select a region within a page to save or download, you might be making a public clipping without intending to. Check your clippings at the end of your session and see if there are some you do not want to remain public; your account name is revealed on your public clippings.
