MIT Technology Review has a brief review of Webaroo, a program and service that lets users search and browse web pages without a connection. Webaroo's servers continously scan the web, analyze web pages, and automatically select the subset of pages with the most content value in the least storage size. These pages are then assembled into topic-specific "web packs" that are transmitted every time the user syncs with the Webaroo service. The reviewer found that the concept works, but demands a great deal of disk space, even as the resulting coverage is somewhat sparse.
