An eternity ago I used a fantastic Firefox extension named "ScrapBook", which was like having your own internet archive: instead of just bookmarking a site, the extension would scrap and download the whole contents (or just sections) from the page you were visiting.
Its website seems to still be up to this day! http://www.xuldev.org/scrapbook/ http://www.xuldev.org/scrapbook/
This extension didn't survive the days of breaking API compatibility that Firefox went through (sigh). However, seems like some replicas exist that aim to provide the same or similar functionality, such as ScrapBee https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/scrapbee/ https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/scrapbee/

- j1elo 5y agoWow that's amazing, I had seen Zotero mentioned in other 4 comments but still hadn't yet triggered me to do a search for it. Seems like a great way to create a personal archive! Will be checking it out, thanks
