Firefox archiver

Wouldn't it be nice if you could archive interesting Web pages in Firefox. You can do that, plus interesting things like highlighting text, with ScrapBook.

What the story doesn't tell you is that you'll probably have to go to Tools/Options/Web Features, and tick the box "Allow Web sites to install software. Look for the yellow bar to open at the top of the page, then choose what you want to install.

So this is what Internet Explorer for Mac has had for... hmmm. 6-7 years ago? Even IE for Mac OS9.x had a scrapbook.

The only difference is that you can search the Firefox scrapbook - and that's a BIG plus!

I wonder if Spotlight on Tiger will have something even better when matched with Safari?
