I discovered Zotero for this use. I don't have any use of its bibliographical abilities, but it stores web pages and PDF articles fine, and is searchable, etc.

Yes, because of all the metadata you can preserve with the save.

Also, frequently what yo want to save is a link to a book or an article (or a Wikipedia article, say) and Zotero recognizes many of these formats and saves them correctly, it's toolbar icon even changes to let you know.

It's a fantastic tool. It's got cloud storage, and it has an API (which I've used -- it's super easy).

True Zotero is a neat tool, especially for files and web pages. I've been using it to read research papers mostly.
