Internet Archive "Save a Page" Plug-In for Chrome

The Internet Archive has a feature where you can submit a URL, which is then archived on the spot. This is a Chrome plug-in to provide access to that functionality... when you're on a page you want to save, simply right-click to archive it. Never lose a page again!

Installation

This repo holds the source code. The Chrome CRX package files are kept in another repo, but you can download the latest version (0.1) here.

To install the Chrome extension:

  1. Download the CRX package from the link above.
  2. Open a new tab in Chrome and go to chrome://extensions in the address bar (omnibox).
  3. Drag the CRX package you downloaded from step (1) into the tab.
  4. That's it!

Usage

It's simple! Whenever you are on a page you would like to add to the Internet Archive, right click on any empty part of the screen: you'll see a context menu item that says "Save this page to the Internet Archive". Click on that... and vola, the page is automatically added to the Internet Archive!
