Nice extension. But there seems to be no way to contact the author (here or at the website). I'd like to know where the saved items are stored, because it doesn't seem to be in the Bookmarks like To Be Read Pro. For those who haven't tried it, it works like this: on a page you want to save to read later, right click anywhere blank, and choose "Save for Later and Close". The page closes, and any time after that you can go into the toolbar at the top of Chrome and access the items you've saved. Warning: once you bring it up again, it is gone from the saved list (which is good, I suppose, you don't have to clean up old saves).

This is the best 'read later' app in the market - hands down. I've only run into one problem: After adding a bunch of pages, the list pops up and OFF the screen, instead of down where it should be. Only a small sliver of my list of visible. Please look into fixing this bug and I will happily give 5 stars. Thanks for the great work! p.s. - the same problem exists with the 'pro' version as well
