Saving web pages in Safari, and ideas on creating persistent searchable web archives

Simple question:

What's the syntax to tell Safari to save a web page with a particular name, at a particular Finder location, in HTML format? Have tried several different syntaxes with no luck.

Complicated question:

My goal here is to try to formalize my web surfing; I surf for about 2 hours a day to keep my skills up, and I'd like to start archiving "might be useful" pages so I can full-text search them in the future. Ideally this would be with a one-click button; best workaround seems to be a script in Script Menu. The theory being that this would all go to a set folder, which could then be searched using the Finder content search engine.

Can anyone think of a better way of approaching this?

Thanks,
Jeff Porten
