After taking my memory for granted for so long, after a head injury back a bit over 20 years ago I was consumed by keeping a record of interesting site links I had read and found the information valuable, figuring it would come in handy in later discussions or projects. I for a while used a crude html page to manually edit in links and notes. I probably stopped doing that iirc 2003 at the height of google's IMO golden era, where if I could recall four or five of what made what I was looking for unique, the exact link I needed was posted generally in the top 20 (real) results. By 2005 the search for it game was slipping and I then relied heavily on bookmarks, usually every month or so I'd waste half a day sorting them and recategorising them and exporting to a html file to refer to when using other OSes. Present day I still bookmark, usually more to indicate the topic was interesting and the link may or may not be in fact dead, though for a while I used to curate the dead links into their own pile, but I now recognise or accept up to 25% of what I link to is more than likely dead after a few years, either the entire site, or it's been pruned ... occasionally there's a similar link at the site dealing with the same topic.
