Re: [O] Title as description in web link

[mediapathic steen]

Someone has indeed: https://github.com/rexim/org-cliplink

It's designed around a linux system, but I am using it just fine on my mac. If 
you are not on either of those OSs it might still be a good starting point. 
Alternately/additionally, if you are on a mac, 
https://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/org-mac-link.html has similar 
functionality. I use both of these regularly. 

Cheers,
