" iLighter (www.ilighter.com) is both simple and elegant.

i-Lighter makes highlighting Web text a breeze Fort Lauderdale-based i-Lighter has developed software to help users highlight text on websites.
While compiling data online for a client, Marcy Hoffman had a bright idea. Bright yellow, to be exact. The 55-year-old Hollywood entrepreneur said she was ''going absolutely crazy'' saving website after website, becoming buried in browser windows when the idea hit her. If only she could use yellow highlighters and Post-it notes, it would make online research so much simpler, she thought.
That epiphany resulted in the creation of i-Lighter, software designed to allow users to quickly save and share a highlighted portion of text on a website, rather than saving a whole page as a bookmarked link in a browser.
