Firefox add-on to Cache Webpages for Future Reference
Posted by Siddharth Agarwal on Thursday, June 25, 2009
It happens quite frequently that when one is online and is busy doing something specific, he/she comes across something interesting but can't pay immediate attention to. In such situation, the general approach is to bookmark the page and return whenever, next, there is time. This strategy works for most of the people but causes cluttering of bookmarks, especially if one forgets to return letting the bookmark stay as is.
Read It Later is a Firefox add-on that lets you save webpages hence eliminating cluttering of bookmarks with sites that are merely of a one-time interest. Like all other Firefox add-ons, Read It Later is very easy to install and use. It can be invoked just by a click to save the current webpage for future reading.
Read It Later does more than just saving webpages for you. It allows you to save the complete contents of a webpage rather than just its URL so that you can view it while offline. Effective use of this add-on is also facilitated by the availability of RSS feed of the webpages of interest which can be synced across computers for easy access. And to top it all, it allows access to the saved webpages list through its website if you are on a computer that does not have this add-on. Recently, Read It Later has become available for iPhone users too.
