Saving Browser Pages

Deja Moo · 09-26-2011, 01:41 AM

I finally got WiFi installed on my internet connection, and have been discovering the "joys" of the quick google and wikipedia look-up. Maybe I missed it, but I can't seem to find any way to save a long article for later reading. Any help out there?

If you press "menu" then "Add to bookmarks", the page will be saved. If you want to read it later on the Kindle, just enter the web browser, press "menu" then select "Bookmarks" and choose the link.

If you want to access the page on your PC, you can put the cursor on the bookmark, press right on the 5-way controller then edit the bookmark name to a full stop. This then displays the full URL (you may have to put the Kindle into landscape mode to see it all). If the address is still too long, you'll have to load the page then move the cursor around in the address bar, but for shorter links, this method can save some time.

You could also do up an HTML document with links and send that to your Kindle. I have one done and I find it easy to get to sites, easier than using the browser itself.

Here's a thread where another user gives a quick how-to.
