Furl It!

You hear a snippet of an interesting news story on the radio or TV. You go to Google News or some other news source to get the full story. It's a keeper so you print it. Two months later you can't find the print out. You placed the URL into your favorites but the article is no longer there. What to do? Furl It!

Furl provides the user with an online storage space where you can store the actual page and recall it later today or next year. It captures the web page not necessarily the URL. So even if the article is no longer on the original web site in six months you have it in your online Furl account. When retrieved it looks exactly like it did on the original web site.

You must register and the site is not as intuitive as it might be. So be sure to read the instructions carefully. It is well worth the effort. I frequently find magazine and newspaper articles that I want to keep but it's a hassle turning them into Word documents. This is a good way to maintain the article and the layout with a single click.
