Reading view is very similar to Evernote's Clearly extension, available for Chrome and Firefox, which also strips out extra parts of a website for reading, though Clearly gives you a few customization options where Edge does not. It's a smart tool for when you don't want distractions, or don't particularly like a website's layout. Reading view is a tool that strips out extra parts of a website - like ads and design elements - to give you a clean, focused view with only text, photos and video.

The Reading view feature strips out everything on a webpage except photos, text and video. (And yes, the same functionality exists in other browsers via extensions and plug-ins, but it's nice to have it here by default.) At work, it's also helpful tool for creating visual aids for projects and presentations. Web Note is a fantastic for students doing online research, since you can save and highlight text and images. Or, you can share the finished mockup via email. When you're done sketching and adding comments, you can save the entire mocked-up webpage to OneNote, your Favorites menu in Edge or your Reading list (more on that later). There's also an option to add typed comments and select and clip part of the screen, if you only want to save a small portion of the website. Using the pen, highlighter and eraser options, which are controlled with a mouse or your finger on a touchscreen, you can draw and sketch all over the page. It's better than any screenshot tool I've ever used because it captures the entire webpage, not just the portion visible on the screen.
Web Note is a mockup tool that lets you capture an image of a website, add notes and sketches, and save it or share it. The best thing about Edge is that it's not "Internet Explorer 12 " it's a complete reboot, with some nice modern tools and worthy additions, the best of which are highlighted below. The good news is that you'll actually want to give it a try.
