ScrapBook<\/a> is one of the Firefox<\/a> plugins. It is a valuable tool for everyone who is searching for information via internet. It can help to save important pages for offline reading, and manage your offline collections.<\/p>\n

Here below is an example when searching for subject privacy, starting from google search engine. With ScrapBook one can nicely categorize\/order your findings (see left panel).<\/p>\n

\"ScrapBook1\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The search lead to interesting findings on Information Security and recent news on privacy on EU. The subsequent searches will then be on those, and therefore I created folder ready for them…<\/p>\n

Tip: Multiple Offline locations<\/strong><\/p>\n

One can store the offline content in any folder. The Multi-ScrapBook option is a good choise for this. First activate it via “ScrapBook Options” menu. After that you get a new “Multi-ScrapBook” button to the ScrapBook menu.<\/p>\n

\"ScrapBook2\"<\/p>\n

By using Manage menu option within Multi-ScrapBook button, one can create several offline content locations.<\/p>\n

\"ScrapBook3\"<\/p>\n

Tip: Create one single MAFF file<\/strong><\/p>\n

ScrapBook has “extensions”. ScrapBook MAFF Creator<\/a> converts ScrapBook into one single file (MAFF). After installation, a new menu option “Create MAF” is available.<\/p>\n

\"ScrapBookMAFCreator1\"<\/p>\n

Note<\/strong> , this tool did not work as I would expect in my environment. I had problems when opening MAFF file. It opened all the pages as tabs, and some pages had problems; the page was not visible. In the ScrapBook MAFF Creator help (chrome:\/\/sbmaf\/locale\/hints.html), it states that one would need to create HTML file via “Output as HTML” ScrapBook menu, and then use that as a base. However, I did not get that to work yet.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
