uQueue
uQueue is a small application that keeps track of the URLs you are interested in but which you do not want to add to your bookmarks.
Adding URLs to the queue is a simple copy away. If you install the provided extentions for Microsoft Internet Explorer, Firefox and Mozilla you can add a URL and the URLs title via the context menu item Add to uQueue.
Features
- Microsoft Internet Explorer, Firefox and Mozilla extensions
- Quick access of queued URLs through the notification area
- History of visited URLs
Requirements
- Windows® XP
- Microsoft XML Core Services: MSXML 3.0 or later, (included with IE6, MSXML 4.0 Service Pack 2 recommend)
