I’ll be honest, I’m probably not the best person to review Scrapbook, a Firefox extension that allows you to save webpages to your hard drive, because I don’t actually do much bookmarking. That said, I did find that Scrapbook offers some really cool ways to mark-up, highlight, annotate, and otherwise keep track of what you want to remember out on the web. Unlike the regular browser-based bookmarking I’ve used, Scrapbook doesn’t just save a link to the page you mark. It also allows you to mark what you found interesting on a page, leave yourself notes, remove parts of the page, and even bookmark links to pages of all different formats.

So if I don’t really do bookmarks, why am I reviewing Scrapbook? Well, last Friday some of my fellow doodaders gave a great presentation (.ppt) about how we do what we do. Part of the presentation included asking audience members for some of their favorite free tools, and one person (sorry I didn’t get your name!) recommended Scrapbook highly. Anonymous audience member, is there anything you’d like to add? Does anyone else out there using Scrapbook have some tips you’d like to share?
