Spool was a free social bookmarking program and social network that was launched in October 2011 at TechCrunch Disrupt.[1] The service allowed users to cache a webpage, including any media on the page, for offline consumption on any mobile device. Spool raised over $1 million from angel investors in January 2012[2] Facebook acquired Spool in July 2012,[3] in what was rumored to be a very competitive process.[4]
