Yesterday we told you about Iterasi, a web bookmarking service that lets you save exact duplicates of web pages you visit in an easily searchable format. But with Iterasi you need to actually click a button to choose pages you want to save. WebMynd performs a similar function, but it automatically saves each page you visit.
WebMynd works as a Firefox add-on. For the most part it runs in the background saving duplicates of every page you visit to WebMynd’s server. When you click the WebMynd button on your toolbar a page opens up showing your most recently visited pages plotted on a “reel.” You can scroll left or right to see other recent pages. Or you can click the Grid view to see a bigger number of thumbnailed images.
Clicking any image brings up a copy that site. We state a copy, because what you’re looking at is a saved snapshot of a web site just as it was when you first visited it. You can click on the links or copy and paste text. And you can search your surfing history as well. If you want to take a more active role in your bookmarking activities, you can click the star button in the WebMynd toolbar when you want to “webmark” a page. On the WebMynd page you’ve the choice of searching or displaying your full history or just webmarked pages.
WebMynd lets you save a week’s browing history for free. Or you can get a subscription and access 6 months of browsing history for $10 or a full year’s history for $20.
