I had a daily commute for about half an hour and I wanted to use the time to read printed articles from the web. See: http://www.xs4all.nl/~jlpoutre/BoT/bookmarklets.html#annotateLinks A Greasemonkey version enhances this concept by adding the links and refernces only for the printed page, so you will get "annotated" links only on printed output. See: http://www.xs4all.nl/~jlpoutre/BoT/Javascript/AnnotateLinks/ There's one problem: very wide URLs will extend beyond the standard paper width, messing up page layout.
