As someone with nearly identical psychology and habits in this regard, my advice is this:
Keep bookmarking and saving stuff, but tell yourself you'll process it later, with the help of technology that doesn't exist yet.
Procrastination is your friend here, not the enemy. Technically it's not even procrastination if you're deferring things on the basis of requiring better tools. You're just scratching an OCD itch of sorts and there's nothing wrong with that. I bookmark almost everything I come across that I find interesting, and I hate losing data in any form.
For me, life is endless streams of data I can't hope to keep up with. I just cherry pick from streams either at my leisure or as is required of me.
