Getting "Snippy" With Web Pages
Hello Fred! Like everyone else, I am addicted to your newsletter and I can hardly wait to see and experience all the new changes.
In response to saving web pages ("How To Save Web Pages" http://langa.com/newsletters/2006/2006-10-30.htm#7 ), I have found Net Snippets ( http://www.netsnippets.com ) the best way to capture, organize and store websites. The best part is dragging the website to the hotspot located on the quick launch bar and letting go. It comes in three flavors, free, standard and professional versions. This program runs independent of any browser so it is always there waiting for you to drop a website on it.
These days I find myself using different browsers at different times, none are perfect. In fact IE7 is somewhat of a disappointment as it seems slower, the tool bar keeps moving items around, and the security reminder is completely annoying. Sorry, that's another subject. ----Eric S.
Net Snippets is a quick way to grab Web content, and also e-mail and PDF files. The company positions the product as a tool for researchers; it's kinda pricey for casual use. The "Standard" and "Professional" versions cost $79.95 and $129.95, respectively. Academic users get a 50% discount. http://www.netsnippets.com/product_info.htm
