Google Chrome: Send to OneNote

I use Google Chrome because it loads most pages much faster than Internet Explorer. Still, there is one feature IE has that I really miss in Chrome: Send to OneNote. That is, I missed the feature, until now. Here are the very simple instructions on getting Send to OneNote feature in Google Chrome, without any code!

Setup (do this once)

In order for Chrome to get the Send to OneNote option, you will need some software loaded on your machine. You will only have to do this once.

1. Install OneNote 2010

   Update (thanks Bruce):
   ——————————–
   It looks like this will only work with OneNote 2010. OneNote 2007 apparently does not add the Send to OneNote command on IE’s context menu. I guess that’s one more good reason to upgrade to Office 2010.

2. Install Google Chrome
3. Install IE Tab Chrome extension

Usage (do this for every page)

Once you have everything setup, you are ready to start using Send to OneNote from Chrome. Just follow these steps from any page that you want to send to your OneNote notebook.

1. Navigate to a page in Chrome
   
2. Click on the IE Tab icon in the toolbar – notice that after you click on the icon, you will now have a second address bar in Chrome
   
3. Right click on an empty spot inside the page in the IE Tab, and select Send to OneNote from the context menu
   
4. The page opens in OneNote, just as if it were sent from Internet Explorer!
    

That’s it.I am now very happy.
