Groove Files Preview Gem

Paresh describes a neat way to use the Groove files tool to store and browse offline web pages. Seth and Paresh showed me yesterday: it's surprisingly useful.

Daniel, I think you were looking for this-and-a-bit-more (something more like SurfSaver-on-Groove). Here's one version of the full recipe:

  • Have a bookmarklet, explorer bar or something (waffle waffle!)
  • which saves the current webpage and images to a temp folder, then
  • makes a local SOAP call to Groove, pushing the temp files into a Files tool, and
  • optionally, lets you jump there from the browser.
Something like that, anyway. (Plus search?)
