This is the software publisher's description.
The World Wide Web is a vast repository of information containing billions of
documents. This presents two problems: how do you find what you need to know and
what do you do with it when you have found it? Google and its competitors have a
workable but by no means perfect solution to the first problem. ScrapBook is
the solution to the second problem for those who want to record what they have
found.
ScrapBook is aptly named: it is your personal repository for the text
snippets, PDFs, web pages, movies and whatever you collect in your travels
around the web.
These three points are important. ScrapBook is personal in the sense that
your scrapbook is part of your Firefox profile by default1. It is also personal
in that you decide how you want to organise your collection. It is a repository
since it makes a local snapshot of the web content you specify. Finally
ScrapBook items can be in virtually any format: almost anything Firefox can
display, ScrapBook can capture.
Prior to ScrapBook or similar programs, you either book-marked interesting
web pages or saved them to your hard disk. In the former case you saved where
the page was but not its content; in the latter you saved the content but not
where it was from. ScrapBook automatically saves the content, the source URL and
the date it was captured. For researchers, who have to document the content they
cite, there is no contest. Even the casual user benefits since there are no more
saved files lost somewhere on the hard disk: they are all there in the
scrapbook!
Add to this that ScrapBook allows selective capture: from a snippet of
selected text, to a frame, through a whole page with or without embedded images,
to a page together with its linked pages to various depths. Add, furthermore,
that ScrapBook items can be searched and sorted, edited and annotated,
classified and filed away.
