Have you tried Yahoo's Search Pad? Great for writing notes as you search
Writers spend hours researching, online and offline.
Recently I discovered Yahoo's Search Pad, and I'm finding it increasingly useful.
‘Search Pad’ is ... a note-taking application which automatically assists a user in saving the addresses of the websites they are visiting on a virtual pad. It helps users collect, edit, organise, save, print and email their notes for immediate or future use. However, unless a user is logged into a Yahoo! account, it will not save or send a user the URLs after the browser window is shut down.
Try Search Pad yourself.
