In Contextual Link Queue I pined for a system integrated application that would allow me to queue up web links for later browsing, without leaving email to cut and paste URLs into a separate document.

Tonight Mgoa Bloom pointed me to my wish almost come true.

URLwell from Enigmarelle Development is a small menubar application for OS X. It does one thing, really well: storing URLs you drag and drop on it for later viewing, with a checked list to indicate visited sites.

URLwell, from Enigmarelle Development.

It doesn't do contextual menus, which my RSI twisted wrists favor, but the drop down interface-on-demand is a better implementation than my original suggestion. The checked queue gives me great feedback on what I have and haven't visited yet, and there's even a leaner, more efficient preference setting for simply removing URLs from the list once they've been browsed.

Bonus: I've discovered it handles any type of link, including email addresses. I can queue a list of email reminders and then work down the line.

Thanks Mgoa, for remembering, and thanks Enigmarelle... this rocks!
