I wonder if Gerald's HTTP Archive system [1] could be rewritten using node.js [2] that would make an easy portable solution for people to have Web archives of their browsing. Offline reading for example.

In A HTTP Proxy Server in 20 Lines of node.js Code - good coders code, great reuse

In 20 lines of node.js code and 10 minutes of time
I was able to write a HTTP proxy. And it scales
well, too. It's not a blocking HTTP proxy, it's
event driven and asynchronous, meaning hundreds of
people can use simultaneously and it will work
well.
