Even if you love reading those longer articles on the Web, sometimes you have to pause to take care of other things--like going back to work from lunch. Because of reasons like this (and the large list of other interruptions you may encounter), a developer created an extension for Chrome that will let you mark the last line(s) you read.

Consider youRhere as your new virtual bookmarker. While it's usually preferred to read an online article in its entirety, it may not always be possible, so give youRhere a try.
