Hello HN. Author of https://closetab.email https://closetab.email here!
I made this software to solve my "tabdemic" problem. I saw myself ending up with 50+ open tabs in my browser regularly - full of browser tabs I want to read later.
This extension helps me to close those tabs with confidence without sending them to the abyss of bookmarks.
This is how it works:
#1 Bookmark a tab using the extension, with an optional timeout and relevant tags.
#2 Close the tab with confidence. Every monday you'll receive an email digest of links you've been meaning to read.

- adz5a 5y agoHello, thanks for your submission this is really interesting. Out of curiosity have you thought about how this problem could relate to history navigation, in the sense that it can create context around a specific resource, ie : retrieve links that you read after reading a HN thread, in order to prioritise its reading order or link it to some topic?
