Personal Project - Involving a fellow designer to build a user-centric permanent archiving solution by "grabbing" content from the web and archiving copies. Allowing for searching and categorisation using titles and typical "tagging" algorithm.

Catche, a play on the word "cache", is a permanent archiving solution for content found on the internet. Designed to save whole web pages, or just images they include, the system would store the main parts of the pages in your personal "library".

The PHP driven site uses the CURL libraries to parse the contents given to it and save them either to the database (in the case of page content) or a physical copy (in the case of images).

The system then allowed users to organise saves by "tags", which describe the data they've just saved. By using the tags, users could then search the saved data to find other images / pages which are of interest to them.

Built with a user system, and has an administrator back end.
