Words such as handy, helpful, efficient, time-saving & convenient very much apply to both of these & more/other things.
Add notes & Share: It is appealing to be able to have something within the browser that does all this offers. Whether sharing what you have grabbed, or 'modified or keeping it for yourself for later (Save or OneNote) or printing it, it is a wonderful utility. It's a joy not having go to an outside (the browser) tool or 2 to do the same actions. So nice, too, that if talking w/ someone can share something from a mutual interest page or segment, in real time so quickly and easily, because it's built right into where you are looking. All needed to do so much right at ones fingertips.
Ask Cortana: Same as others are saying... often, without interrupting what you're doing/viewing, can view at the side what may well be enough info... without, actually, going to a search page per se... unless, turns out to necessary to dig further or deeper. But, to take a quick look without leaving the page is great.
Both of these things are used a lot for all they can do & offer because they are so useful & enhance smooth productivity.
Cheers,
Drew

if all Cortana integration is gonna bring is to provide us just with a small window to see search results then they better drop it already because things like that are not new, they can be achieved with Google chrome extensions too, so no real advantage against Google chrome.
