Excelente para hacer una selección de lo que necesitas leer por ejemplo en gente dedicada a la investigación o para armar una lista de artículos por leer en internet. Con un simple clic en el menú contextual puedes guardar una liga para leerla más tarde y al elegirla del menú esta se visualiza en una nueva pestaña y se borra de dicha lista (aunque recientemente esta función de borrar está presentando ciertas fallas).
