Lisa - I live in your world. I've currently got ~30 tabs open in my browser and that's down a few.
Some tricks: 1. Anything I want to read and evaluate later goes in Instapaper - coupled with a good app on your phone or IPad you can read this articles offline (i.e. on a long plane flight). Caveat my article queue is closing in on 300 (a mix of Agile and Neuroscience). Once read and digested anything I want to keep is copied to Evernote - many Instapaper apps have a share function to copy the contents to Evernote 2. Everything to save right away just goes straight to Evernote with their browser plugins (Clip to Evernote; and Clearly) 3. Bookmarks for anything I might want to reference again later as an evolving webpage i.e. JUnit docs 4. A good undo close tab buffer - I use "Sexy Undo Closed Tabs" for Chrome - I've got the buffer set to 5000 tabs. Even then I occasionally lose things and that drives me nuts :-) Good Luck Mark - a human On Thu, Jan 31, 2013 at 8:17 PM, Michael Ausbrook <mka...@gmail.com> wrote: > Two possibilities. > > 1) Create a "Followup" bookmark folder at one end of your bookmark bar. > Then just drag the addresses into that. > > 2) Keep Evernote for reference; use Pocket for followup / return to > things.
