Generally I only bookmark stuff that's going to be useful to me at a later date.

What I'd really like is for the bookmark to also cache the page locally so that even if I click the bookmark at a later date and the site has gone I can still read what was on the page.



Have you seen Historious? http://historio.us/


Woohoo, I made that. Have a free premium month as a thanks for the recommendation (what's your username)?


I'm a paying user of yours so I don't have any specific problem with you or historious, but I don't like that you're offering a free month here. I'm sure it won't really have any impact, but in theory by rewarding people who say "have you tried <product>" in a HN comment you're incentivising people to make those comments, essentially offering people the chance to use a referrals scheme without it going through referral links.


That's true generally, although it doesn't really apply in this case. I don't usually give free months to people who mention historious, I was just happy to see a mention and gave a freebie.

Arguably, the free bookmarks you get through referrals are more useful, since they don't expire...


Both Clipboard and Pocket can do that. Pocket is my personal favorite as it's available on all devices that I own: http://getpocket.com/ https://clipboard.com/


http://www.zotero.org/ can do this. It can make a snapshot of the page, and also a copy of all attachments on it (especially useful for pdfs, images etc.)
