    I just don’t bookmark anything I don’t read straight away. If I want to read it that badly I’ll search for it again.

    When I close all my tabs, i ask the question, was this hard to find? If for example I am looking for information on Tolstoy and the article I have open in my tab is the top hit when you search Tolstoy I will not bother bookmarking.

      Running a search uses far more resources (energy/ carbon footprint) than accessing a known url directly.

    Bookmarks within the browser just became too unwieldy, so for years I’ve emailed them to myself.

    Between 2 February and today there are 251 such emails. 26 of them are marked as being read.

    Most of them are generated when I’m frustrated reading a poorly formatted article on my phone. Some are to capture research or items I might require at some future point in time.

    I rarely delete them.l, since often they help with determining timelines and the like.
