Ask HN: How do you organize and keep track of stuff you've read online?
I read a lot of online material and it's all in tiny snippets. A blog post here, a tweet there, an image or a pdf, 10 minutes of a pod cast.
Does anyone keep track of an organize this stuff?
If so how and what do you use?
Does anyone share these collections of info with others?
If so, how?
- sharemywin 9y agopost it here then mark as a favorite.
- jerry40 9y agoEvernote could help, it allows you to add tags to a bookmarked article.
- cimmanom 9y agoI treat 99.9% of what I read online as ephemeral. Browser bookmarks for the rest.
- iovrthoughtthis 9y agoSame for me. But that 0.1% is often gold. Bookmarks are the obvious tool here but they just aren't very useful. A google for my history would be pretty great. Maybe grouping together things that came from similar search sessions.
- cimmanom 9y agoWhat about bookmarks isn't working for you?
- iovrthoughtthis 9y agoHonestly, the UI for interacting with them I guess. Often I want to provide some context to someone about what I've read and it's way more than a single article. It's a collected across many sessions. Searching for things I've viewed at a similar time (history more so than bookmarks but I don't know when I'm going to want to remember something I read!).
