create and manage web archives
thoresson | Oct 31 2006
Hi, I'm new in the OS X-world, and have just learnt about Safari's web archive function. As a freelance journalist, having the possibility to save websites that might be useful in the future as selfcontaining files are a great possibility. Even better if there was some software that helped me in creating and manage the web archives. To do it in Safari requires a couple of mouseclicks. Is there anything around that would let me create a web archive out of a url in the clipboard or similar just with the press of a hotkey? And what about sorting and tagging the created archives so that they are easily available in the future? /Anders 13 Comments

 Yojimbo - Search v. SortSubmitted by patrickrhone on October 31, 2006 - 6:00pm.
I personally like the idea in Yojimbo of "Collections" which basically work like playlists in iTunes. I think this idea of organizing items into endless sub folders is outdated. I find that the collections, labels flagging and search in Yojimbo is more than efficient in finding the things I need and organizing them for the period they need to be. BareBones will be adding the capability to have "smart collections" in a future version. Once that happens I will not need any further organization beyond that. Just my humble opinion. That being said, just like in DevonThink you can either save a bookmark or a web archive in Yojimbo as well. And you can do so very fast without leaving the app you are in so you can stay focused on the task at hand. That was a big selling point for me since I use things in full screen mode a lot. All the same, as you can see there are plenty of apps that do what you are looking to do. Choose the one that works best for your org-fu. » POSTED IN:
