The Mission

To squirrel something away means to stow it someplace safe, especially for future use. Inspired by the squirrel and its notable habit of storing acorns for later, Squirrel Away aims to help users cache and manage an assortment of online resources from important links and forms to inspirational images and custom notes.

User Journeys

As a student with mediocre organization skills and a proclivity for too many tabs, Squirrel Away really helps me store a myriad of links, along with helpful comments to remind me why I was looking at them in the first place.
