How can I easily share links or text between my Android phone and my laptop? For example, if I have a URL for an image from my laptop's browser that I want to share with a WhatsApp contact, what is the easiest way of doing this? The only way I can think of is to copy the URL, paste it into an email to myself, open the email, copy the URL and then paste it into WhatsApp.
Forget the pain of emailing stuff just to share some text. If you are running Android version 4.0 &amp; above, check Keep from Google.

Keep works on your phone, tablet and computer. Everything you add syncs across all of your devices.

Visit https://keep.google.com/ to open Keep on PC. 

Add your notes/text/link/audio note/photo. Immediately this would be synced across your devices. You can access the same stuff in your android app.

Works vice versa as well.

Get Google Keep Android app from here.
