Don’t forget toread

toread Everybody is suffering from information overload. On a regular basis, I run into pages that contain information that I’m not able to process at that time. However, I don’t want to forget it either. I also hop between computers regularly.

The easy solution is to use the new Web 2.0 service toread. You supply them with an email address and they give you a bookmarklet. Activate that bookmarklet at any page you want to read later and they will email a cache of the page to you for your future perusal.

As Tim at Hawk Wings points out, Safari can do something similar, but that requires several steps and your web browser of the moment including that feature. This works in any browser capable of the bookmarklet. Very useful.
