Krunchd and Fur.LY

Do you need to use several websites while researching a big project? You can use Krunchd (with Internet Explorer) and Fur.ly (with Firefox) to paste in multiple URLS. Once you have all your URLs pasted in, you can design your own URL address.  With this application, you can remember the URL you chose and use it anywhere---and it is easy to share with friends who might be working with you on the project!
