SEANLEBRETON  I really like this application. It is super lightweight and easy to use. I just would make minor changes to it. First, please make this available for leopard users. Not everyone has snow leopard. Second, I wish you could just click the icon and then open the link, instead of actually pressing open. Same goes with the delete button. Third, I wish you could open the link and have it automatically delete the link. Might also be cool if you could make different folders for the links, as I would like to keep my work links in a different spot then my free time links. Otherwise, very good app. Keep up the great work.

PLOINKR  Very useful. 1 small problem: preferences don't seem to stick – if I uncheck "Show links count", it'll be checked again after the next relaunch.

ISCREEN  Can be useful to be less distracted while doing a search on the web, without losing possible relevant informations on the other hand...

THUS.SPAKE.Z  Quit Read for OS 6 only?!!! Totally absurd! There are many Mac users who, like me, are staying with Leopard OS 5, which works very solidly and reliably, especially in its latest versions, (the current OS 10.5.8 is rock solid) and have no intention of upgrading to Snow Leopard(which still seems to have its problems)....at least not just yet, and maybe not for a good long while.

OS 5 is hardly antiquated, "old school" or outdated.

Quiet Read looks like a neat, handy app but I don't want it or any other OS 10.6 only apps badly enough to install Snow Leopard.

IDJSTER  This looks like a great app, but do things really have to be Snow Leopard only? There are a lot of macs out there that aren't Intel, and people are going to continue using them without updating to the new system. Please, developers! Remember the bulk of users and make these backward compatible!

SPRINGHEELMAC  All in all a nice enough app, but it seems easier to just use "Safari/File/Save As..." and save whatever page to docs.

CORTLAND  So we're coming out with 10.6-only apps already? Yikes. Developers, PLEASE knock this off. I'm still waiting for all the others to fix the apps that Snow Leopard's broken so far.

Sorry, this just irks me. >_

DR. GIRLFRIEND  This is wonderful! I've yet to come across a browser with decent bookmarking capabilities -- especially when it comes to temporary links that you just want to read later and not store -- so this little app really comes in handy. Very nice GUI too, but I agree with AWADO; the menu should gracefully fade away after the link is dropped rather than requiring an extra click to close it.

If you're using Firefox, you can perform a similar action using the Read It Later Addon and more advanced saving, editing, and organization of webpages using Scrapbook:
