I heard from someone who claimed to read blockbuster nineteenth century novels on her Palm while waiting in line in queues! Which makes me wonder why anyone would buy an eBook-only device, when they could have the functionality of a PDA.-rjbull (November 21, 2007, 06:08 AM)
Because reading a book from a PDA sucks. It can be done, I have done it, but man... those things are not optimized for the task. It's like watching a 2-hour movie on your phone. Sure, people do it, but it's not exactly a pleasant experience.-Ralf Maximus (November 21, 2007, 07:42 AM)
Finally would anyone choose to read a novel on this sort of device - there is no way I want to lie in bed with a glowing lump of plastic glaring at me instead of a comforting paperback that can happily drop on the floor without problems when I drop off to sleep!-Carol Haynes (November 20, 2007, 12:11 PM)
What I'd like is a way of clipping a section of text from a Web page, and saving it with the URL included automatically.-rjbull (November 18, 2007, 04:12 PM)
If I'm reading this correctly, both Evernote and NetSnippets allow you to do this. If you can still find a copy of the free version of Netsnippets somewhere, it does this, brilliantly. Evernote does it as well and is available in a free version.-Darwin (November 19, 2007, 07:30 AM)

VisitURL: Flexible, efficient, lightweight bookmark manager
VisitURL is not a fully-fledged bookmark manager. It is not a replacement for Netscape's bookmark file or Internet Explorer's Favorites. It does not organize bookmarks into categories.
VisitURL is designed to help maintain a handy (as in: at hand) list of URLs that you intend to visit. For instance, if a friend sends you an email recommending that a particular URL, Visit is a good place to store the URL until you are ready to launch your browser and go surfing. If you copy the URL to clipboard, Visit will automatically intercept it and save to its database. If you copy several URLs at once, Visit will get all of them. (You may also add URLs manually or directly from an open browser window.) If you copy the URL with some text around it, Visit will optionally treat that text as a description for the URL you copied.
To access the bookmarked site, you can either view the HTML page that Visit creates in your browser, or click a toolbar button to launch the browser directly from Visit. There is no limit to how many URLs you may store, though the program is primarily designed to hold, view and edit a short, temporary list. Netscape and Explorer tend to consume so much system resources that it's not practical to keep them loaded at all times - this is where Visit comes in.
I *suppose* I should be backing the data up to a different format as a backup...-Darwin (November 15, 2007, 08:54 AM)
But what I would like is that a field in the form on the page gets a word put in for me so that I don't have to manually type it. [...]
I was hoping for something general, every kind of case thing.-foolios (November 15, 2007, 08:46 AM)

I do, however, worry about the issue of being able to access my data if they go under.-Darwin (November 14, 2007, 04:08 PM)
However, if that were to happen, the free version is available so you're data would not be inaccessible - it just wouldn't be very convenient!
just one hoop which is quick, easy and painless.-johnfdeluca (November 14, 2007, 10:29 AM)
I just find it easier to visit websites. [...] What I really want is :-
- get the entire article and keep a copy offline. If the article is not available in the feed then it should cache the web page with all images etc-MrCrispy (November 14, 2007, 04:16 AM)
Feedreader [...] some of its features & settings are kind of buried.-Ralf Maximus (November 14, 2007, 07:53 AM)
Yes, you must activate it over the web with the RoboForm server. I remember being worried about this initially (like what if the company went away)....but I've since forgotton about that. I view that as a necessary evil in order for a software company to protect their intellectual property.-johnfdeluca (November 14, 2007, 08:36 AM)
I've used RoboForm (RF) for years....it is the first thing i install on any new laptop. Well worth the price. The key features I use RF are:
- Password Manager: Pretty obvious here. The key drawback to this is that it only works with websites so other apps I use can't have their PW autofilled by RF.
-johnfdeluca (November 13, 2007, 10:20 PM)
- Bookmarks: Rather than using the Bookmarks in IE or Firefox, I use the feature in RF. Since I always have RF, I always have my bookmarks.
- Safe: I use this to store software keys, etc.
