What is Email This?

"Email This" is a Firefox add-on that allows you to save clutter-free versions of articles to your email for later reading. It removes ads, unnecessary sidebars and distractions from a webpage, thereby providing a clean, readable view of the content. You can save webpages with one click or a keyboard shortcut, and add notes keywords to your saved pages for easy searching. The add-on even lets you save links without opening them, and supports saving PDFs, DOCX files, PPTs, Excel sheets and images as email attachments. Plus, it's completely free to use.
