Furl: your web page filing cabinet. A neat web app that allows you to save and file articles of interest for future reference. Great for blogs, school research, reference or just to impress your friends! Some people just can't get enough.

Furl provides a little something for everyone. RSS feeds, email subscriptions, and direct links to your furled conent. It's all there. For example, you can view my public furl archives

  • I soooooo needed this! Thanks, bah!
  • [big bunch o' b's]
  • The simplest ideas are always the best. This is the best idea ever. A thousand bananas. If only I'd had this for the past three months, my job would have taken up about half the time it has and I'd have done it twice as well...
  • Good to see that everyone loves this idea as much as I do. When I first say it, I knew was life was now complete. I also love how they're really dedicated to protecting your data incase the whole site doesn't work out. I'd hate to lose a lot of this stuff.
  • It's like public bookmarking. I've been meaning to turn my bookmarks into a links page for months and never got around to it. This is really, really...good. What's the dealy with the rss feeds? Can I view MoFi's rss feed through furl? I couldn't work it out.
  • No, you can't view other RSS feeds through furl. They provide you with an RSS feed of your recently bookmarked pages so you can share with friends that way. By default, they have a feed set up for every user's recent posts. Here's mine for example.
  • My first reaction was "big deal, that's what I use 'favorites' for." Then I saw you could make it public and now it's superduper sweet. also: bah, you clipped me! I feel so used!
  • I am in love with this. Again, thanks. Just wanted to say, y'know?
