Summary

Analyze keywords

Adds a button to the Chrome toolbar. When clicked, it sends the URL of the current tab to archive.today to preserve a snapshot of the page, and opens the result in a new tab. Also includes Link context menu to Archive or Search, Page context menu to Search. Archive URL can be bookmarked for future reference, shared, whatever. Uses HTTPS for security. For similar functionality on Android, check out Share2Archive in the Play Store.

NOTES:

If you get an error, try again or try later. It's NOT an extension issue—archive.today sometimes gets overwhelmed.
CloudFlare DNS may not resolve archive.today, so if you experience DNS errors, try a different DNS service.

WHAT'S NEW: 0.6 Update: Improve Search functionality.

0.5 Update: Option to open archive.today in adjacent tab, tab at end, or active tab. Closing new tab now returns to original tab.

A useful extension that allows me to automate something I used to do manually. Who doesn't like being able to be a bit lazier? Only things I'd like are the ability to archive in the background without a new tab being opened as well as a way to archive a URL, e.g. a text field in the extension dropdown (which could probably just call the code for the background archive function). I guess those are fairly niche, but sometimes I just need to actively archive something that's rapidly changing.

Top Tip: If your URL has come from eg Facebook or Twitter then delete all the extra the stuff at the end of your URL to have it work! THANKYOU so much for this extension !!
