CHECK THIS OUT! Pocket.com



About Pocket.com
Pocket.com is a handy application that I just signed up for yesterday. The tagline on their website, GetPocket.com, states "when you find something you want to view later, put it in Pocket".

The Pocket application is free, displays on multiple devices through a synced web account and can be integrated with over 500 other applications such as Twitter, Google, Flipboard, etc. 


Who is Pocket.com intended for?
Anyone who needs to save information from the Internet. Pocket.com is great for consultants, designers, content developers and teachers.


Why use Pocket.com?
In my job, I use applications like Pocket to capture things from the Web such as images, text, entire webpages, newsletters, PDFs, etc. I like that Pocket allows you capture information from your browser, from your email and from other applications. 

The Pocket interface is very user-friendly and can easily be searched. You can view your articles and webpages offline once they are saved which is a real draw.

Check out GetPocket.com. You'll need to setup a free account with your name, email and password. Like many web-based applications, it is a "freemium", meaning that there is a free version and a paid one. I think that the free version is enough for this software in that you can save information from the different sources, syncs across multiple devices, search and viewing the information. The premium version offers a permanently saved archive for all of the materials you save, advanced search features, sorted search results and viewing recent searches.
