safarisafari-extensions
Is there any way of convincing Safari to clear the cache when it quits? If not from Safari's options, then maybe an extension that does this?
I would use private browsing instead, but unfortunately it doesn't seem to work well for me (some sites say they can't use cookies, and a lot of functionality is broken with this enabled).
I have heard that readitlater works to assemble the full article whether you have paid for it or not.
I just went to the Introduction page in Safari 5.1 and reader is already to page 15. I'm not going to let it finish, but it doesn't look like it's blocked to me. I haven't paid yet - so something might be up in terms of server overload if reader isn't working for you.
The author of Instapaper did mention this specifically in his last podcast that it was quite possible technically for instapaper to scrape the whole article. The gist I recall is he didn't want to cross the line of bypassing ARS' intent since ARS has clearly decided to offer single page view as a benefit to their subscribers.
He urged people to spend the $5 for a month's access if they wanted the whole article to load in instapaper for later reading.
My take is that many of the services actually made sure their tools would not parse the whole article out of respect for a journal as well as an author that penned 27,000 words.
I have a similar workflow that I've used in Safari and I've used the Edit Name Feature to make it easier to move from one site to another.
If I bring up a chart of SSO in Stockcharts.com and create a Bookmark, the Bookmarks Toolbar Menu shows it as SSO - Stockcharts Workbench - Stockcharts.Com.
Then I "Show All Bookmarks", right-click (control click) edit the name SSO - Stockcharts Workbench - Stockcharts.Com to be just SSO.
This now appears as SSO on my bookmark toolbar list. To switch to this bookmark, I can choose it under the Bookmarks menu or Bookmarks Toolbar. What I usually do is use Cmd L which highlights the address bar, type SSO and Safari displays a short list of History and Bookmarks. I scroll down to SSO under Bookmarks and hit "Enter" for my SSO chart. This bypasses using the mouse and gets me right to the chart with just a few keystrokes.
As another example, I get to Apple with CMD L, AAPL, cursor down to AAPL site I want and hit Enter.
Here's a screenshot for AAPL with several bookmarked sites that include AAPL.
I like using Cmd L for two reasons. I can move from one bookmark to another without needing to use my mouse or trackpad. Plus the shortened SSO Name sits on my Bookmark Toolbar using much less space than if I added it to the Toolbar with the original bookmark title.

The menubar app Cookie can clear exactly what you want to clear at quit, at timed intervals, or both.
Can also clear thosenefarious Tracking Cookies, as well as non-favorite cookies, Flash and other databases -- and do this for all your browsers.
Not part of the company--just think especially with Tracking, it's a must have. SweetPea Productions, trial available.
