100%. I used to have massive bookmark collections all extremely well organized. But at some point in time I realized it was a huge amount of effort and rarely go back and use them.
For links I want to keep, for say education, related to a project I'm working on, or similar - I simply write them down in Inkdrop (notepad system of choice) under the relevant note/header. Honestly I don't often go back to those anyways, but they are there if I need them.
For other stuff that I want to keep around for longer, maybe "This will be interesting to read, I just don't have time now" - I send them to myself on Telegram (messenger of choice). It's search works and it's a great timeline. If I don't think about that article/topic again, or don't have free time to go back... then it gets buried and I probably will never see it again. But the link always exists and is searchable... so I don't feel like I've "lost" things completely.
- dgellow 7y agoSelf-texting you on Telegram is a great idea. That way you don't feel the pressure to keep it organized, you have a way to find it if you need it in the next few days, and you have some sort of historical records. That's neat.
