Hello Jan, My preference is for keeping as much as possible on the web. Using some editor (I use the common Microsoft one, Front Page) maintain HTML files on topics/areas of interest and copy/edit all snippets of interest that come along into such. When any file is "reasonably" ordered, then upload it to some free files storage site. I use a number of such but mainly prefer Zoomshare, which allows 250 Mb storage (I use less than 40 Mb of such allowance currently). One of my recent examples has been in collecting everything I can on the history of just one rock .. on the Blue Mountains near Wentworth Falls: http://members.iinet.net.au/[email protected]/WF-wedding-rock-hist/W F-wedding-rock-hist.htm Advantages I see in operating thus include: 1) You can refer others to it simply via a URL. 2) When I have suffered hard disk disasters I was able to download back some of what I'd lost. Cheers, John in Sydney WEB:http://www.lachlanhunter.deadsetfreestuff.com/JohnByrnes.htm ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ At 01:26 AM 12/07/2009 -0700, you wrote: >Hello List >I am an hopelss collector - can anyone tell me how to methodically hoard snippets which appear from time to time, such as lately, the information about Pittown?  I have no immediate use or connection for it, but I know it impinges on my ultimate big picture. >Help! >Cheers >Jan
