TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
This, folks, is cooler and more useful than ... I dunno, sneakers or
an index finger or Renée Zellweger.
Install the extension. Restart Firefox (or Mozilla). Browse to a
page you want to save a copy of. Right-click, choose `Capture
Page`. Throw 'em all in a big pile, or create folders to organize
what you've saved, as you would with Bookmarks. But they're not
Bookmarks. Everything's saved locally, including images if you like.
It gets better. First select some text (or text and images) on the
page. Right-click and choose `Capture Selection`. Save as with a
whole page, organizing as you go.
It gets better. Choose `View -> Sidebar -> ScrapBook` (Alt-K).
Navigate through your locally-saved ScrapBook. Or do a free-text
search.
It gets better. Any saved page in your ScrapBook may be edited,
marked-up with highlights, and supplemented with your comments.
Superior method for organizing research. Inherently
offline-friendly. Since your ScrapBook is saved locally, desktop
search tools can index it. Obviously it'll work for intranet
content and anything else you can view in Firefox/Mozilla.
