Firefox & Chrome extension for emailing websites to yourself

mailto:me

mailto:me is a browser extension for Firefox and Chrome to email websites to yourself. If you want, it's a poor man's read-later system that relies on nothing more than your email inbox.

mailto:me generates mailto:// hyperlinks and lets the browser open them in your email client of choice. Note that in order for the extension to work correctly it is essential that you have configured your web or local mail client as standard application for mailto:// links in the browser settings.
