URL Grabber -- One of the most annoying limits of Windows' Clipboard is its inability to easily save more than one piece of information. This especially becomes a problem with users wanting to save URLs from their newsreader or mail client for later viewing within a web browser. Previously, users could only save one URL at a time and would have to switch back and forth between their applications. URL Grabber eliminates this problem by saving as many URLs as you want (the unregistered demo version is restricted to three concurrently saved URLs at any one time) to a file for later use. URL Grabber takes up a minimum amount of system resources and desktop space by unobtrusively occupying the top right corner of the screen. While users still have to manually cut and paste URLs into URL Grabber, its ability to store many URLs at once is especially useful for many users. At $29.95, though, I still have to wonder if it's all that useful. Positives: Concurrently saves multiple URLs for later use, minimal effect on resources Negatives: Price tag vs. value? Users still must manually cut and paste into URL Grabber Reviewer: Forrest Stroud apps conference Main Menu
