One of the challenges to using the internet as a means to learn is that, we oftentimes are unable to retain the information that we just read. But maybe we would not run into this issue if there was a way to pro-actively engage in the content.
tiddlyWebResearcher is a Firefox extension which allows users to take notes on webpages and exporting them to TiddlyWiki for further parsing.
Try out the extension by downloading from the Firefox add-on page: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/webresearcherjs/

Checkout the docs/docs.md folder for notes on how to develop this extension further.
The notes that are taken with tiddlyWebResearcher are stored in the browser's localStorage. In order to prevent any data loss, always backup your browser's localStorage. This is typically stored in webappsstore.sqlite under your local firefox profile folder. Check out: Where does Firefox store javascript/HTML localStorage?.
