App Review: Read Later Fast


   Read Later Fast is an app that you can use to archive pages for reading later, fast. And now, the name make sense!

   With Read Later Fast installed, you can go to a page, right click, and click Read Later. Doing this will save the webpage into the app, where you can click it and view it, that simple. With the page in the app, once viewed, you can archive it for later reference, or delete it.
   That's all the app does, but it does it well. You can sync your pages online via Diigo's storage service. Also, when you're not on the internet, you can still view pages. However, this offline capability has its drawbacks. For one, it will not snapshot any flash or javascripts, so don't expect to be saving Youtube video pages with this. Also, pages will not update automatically (You can, manually), so I wouldn't recommend to use this with blogs or news sites.
   Other than that, this is a nice app to save pages. I currently use it with Wikipedia pages for doing research papers on the go.
