A method I use includes the tools of Firefox with two Add-ons: a) Autocopy b) Copy Plain Text, and Brainstorm http://www.brainstormsw.com/index.html.

This is what is looks like when I pasted the three referenced tools above:

BrainStorm makes it easy for you to capture information from your head, your computer screen or any file. Grab what you need on the fly. organize and embellish it when it suits you. References to external files, programs, web and email addresses can be invoked with Magic Launch. [more]

The catch to this is appending the URL is not automatically done, you have to select that option to append it within the context menu.  That means you end up with two clipped texts, just that the second one has the URL.
