LinkSaver

If you are working behind a screen, or your spare time is used to navigate the Web, you must be accessing and sharing links daily. These links, or URLs, can be transformed into bookmarks, which facilitate access to certain web pages. To take bookmark creating a step further, LinkSaver comes up with a smart way of creating a URL list for local storage, ensuring your links can be accessed from any PC, operating system, or browser.

Besides its small size, the application is also portable. It makes sense to be comprised in such a package, as it simply creates HTML local pages containing all your links. If you move this app to a removable drive and keep the local directory as the output path, you'll build your own pocket archive.

If ease-of-use and a basic dashboard recipe are what you're after, you might want to look for another app. You don't have to be a rocket scientist to master LinkSaver, but a decent amount of skill and HTML knowledge is required.

Launching the app will land you on a compact yet somewhat crowded UI. Most functions are labeled or have a description, yet there are a handful of buttons that lack both. This particular layout lets you use clipboard input, URL decoding, and a way to organize link names. One can also set up triggers, add timestamps, or lock files.

In case the program gives you the feeling that something is missing, that's due to how the app was built. The settings area where additional changes can be done has its own launcher, called Settings. From this menu, one can manage created link lists, index them and view their contents.

LinkSaver is an interesting application that promises to deliver link lists, or as the developer calls it - an alternative to browser's bookmarks. However, using this application is not as fun and games as others. You'll have to be fairly skilled in matters of HTML and computing, in general, to successfully use this utility.
