Techie-Buzz Verdict

Clippable does exactly what is says. However, in some sites it does not exclude the retweet button if placed at the end of the post. Otherwise it removes the advertisements, banners, widgets and presents a distracting free reading environment.

Techie-Buzz Rating: 4/5 (very good)
