Zurpy -- Save Stuff & Access From Any Computer

Posted on Monday, May 01, 2006 at 5:54 PM by Randall

Okay, this really isn't my thing as I only use one computer, but I received an email from a friend who loves Zurpy and begged me to mention it. Zurpy is a new (and free) web service that allows you to:

Save your bookmarks, text clippings, images, files, and news feeds in one place. Easily tag and find what you've saved. Access your stuff from any computer anywhere.

If you move from computer to computer during the day, I can see how Zurpy could be useful. Unlike some of the social sites that do similar things, your info belongs just to you on this site -- what you save apparently is not shared with others (at least not intentionally). It's easy to use as well. Once you register, you drag a bookmark to your browser's link bar. When you click the link, a window appears where you can save and tag a link, newsfeed, image, file, or text note. The url and feed are pre-filled with the info from the site you are on. However, there doesn't seem to be a search, other than a way to limit the displayed items to those with a specific tag.
