    I-Lighter.com - Highlight and Save Notes Online

    i-lighter

    Honestly, is there anything more annoying than constant cutting and pasting from the internet to a Word document? No, I don't think there is. The people at i-Lighter thankfully agree. Now, instead of having to risk arthritic pinkies and pointer fingers from hitting "Ctrl-C and Ctrl-V" every five minutes while researching online, you can use i-Lighers highlighting service. First, you'll need to install the i-Lighter toolbar (works for Firefox and Windows Explorer). i-Lighter then creates its own heading on your browser; use the drop-down menu to navigate the application. To highlight and save something, click on the i-Lighter and your mouse will convert into a veritable yellow internet highlighter. Click and drag across the text and images you want to save, and they will automatically be stored in your i-Lighter account. Additionally, i-Lighter also has other cool options like sending your i-Lights over email and del.icio.us tagging capabilities.

    In their own words

    "When was the last time you:
    • Opened multiple tabs and accidentally closed them, losing everything you've been researching?
    • Used 'cut and paste' to save snippets of web content and than tried to find some of it?
    • Bookmarked a page and can't remember what was important to begin with?
    • Or, the bookmark link was broken, data lost forever?
    Welcome to i-Lighter! A one-click way to:
    • Save only what matters to you
    • Add your annotations
    • Find it when you need it
    • Simply include it in your email, documents and blogs
    • Most importantly, never lose any of it
    It's FREE and as easy as using a yellow highlighter and a stack of post-it notes. Take a moment and click on our demo or download i-Lighter and see how easy it is to use!"

    Why it might be a killer

    Well, I'm sold. With the amount of cutting and pasting that my job requires, the i-Lighter is the perfect tool. It's so easy to store all the information and access later; no more hunting through lengthy cut-and-pasted Word documents trying to find a specific piece of information. i-Lighter will save tons of time and ease frustrations when conducting any kind of online research.

    Some questions

    It would be good if the site featured a demonstration with Firefox, not just Windows Explorer; are there any differences in the way the application functions across the two platforms?
