What Is It:
iLigher is an interesting and free online tool that enables you to save information from web sites and then view that data from your laptop no matter where you happen to be working.
You can save text and images to an online account. The online account has options that enable you to share by e-mail, folder sharing, tagging and blogging.
Why It is Useful:
Too often we save information on our home computer, forget to save it an external drive or disk and then later need that information while traveling. With the iLighter program you can now forget having to carry additional drives or disks just to keep saved information accessible.
You can set up your folders to be public or private. The public option is quite handy for sharing information with co-workers as you don't need to try sending links or information by e-mail.
You can even add notes to information that you save for future reference or to point out specific details to another person.
What Do I Need to Use It:
You need to have Windows XP Home or Pro edition on the computers that you will use iLighter on and it works with MS Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox browsers.
Where Can I Get It:
You can download i-Lighter from i-Lighter.com and click on the blue download link on the right side of the screen.
Just My Thoughts:
I'm one of those people who love to save bits and pieces while I'm doing research. Previously I had to save that information in documents and text files; then try to keep all those organized. I could spend more time to trying to find something on my hard drive than if I went and found the original page.
I was invited to give iLighter a try and I have to admit I've been most pleased with what it can do. It makes it simple to find the information I've saved and now I can access that information from my desktop or laptop and not have to transfer files back and forth.
The other nice feature with it being online based is that no matter what I do to my computers the information will always be there. I don't have to worry now about backing it up or trying to find a way to make it safe.
If you have been searching for a way to stay better organized and have the ability to make information more accessible to others, then iLighter is definitely worth downloading. It installs easily and you will be up and running in minutes.
