Great new tool to help you organise research notes: iCyte

  • iCyte enables you to highlight and save text on any webpage, allowing you to recall the most relevant information. You can save sections of webpages or the whole thing.

    Webpages you Cyte are saved forever on our server, letting you return to your research even if the webpage has been deleted or modified.
