bookmarks

Do you have a lot of bookmarks (on your computer, this is)

Do you have them organized?

If you use Firefox, are a lot of them tagged?

Please tell me about your bookmarks.

I use Pinboard for fics, and most of the stuff I have in Firefox is hidden in folders that I have to decode in order to figure out where it is. (What's the difference between 'Stuff Stuff' and 'Others'? I have no idea. They both have no rhyme or reason to their content.) I couldn't live without my bookmarks toolbar though. Easiest/laziest way to get to all of my social media/the sites I use every day.

I'm sad and don't bookmark anymore. I like Firefox's (and to a certain extend, Google Chrome's) thing where the top visited sites show up as tiles when you open a new tab. This is probably because I only visit like, 5 sites regularly.

I use Pinboard for fic and it was pretty damn organized until I got into 1D and then for some reason I just gave up. It's an untagged mess right now and I'm upset about it. I still have my Delicious account too, though I don't htink I've saved anything there since whenever the last SPN fic was I read.

Non-fic stuff gets saved to Firefox bookmarks, just in folders. I have a lot of folders. My folders have folders. Soooo many bookmarks. But I can still usually find what I'm looking for because organized chaos. The bookmarks toolbar is also my friend, though I have so many daily bookmarks saved to it that its its own folder, too, really.

I have different folders for different things - but I seriously need to re-organize my recipes online cause they are just a MESS! I use both chrome and firefox. I've never tagged stuff in FF before. But I keep random stuff together and then all my land comm stuff is in one folder name (beaconhills) or (liarsland), etc. For general graphic comms - like where to get stuff I have that in a resource folder :)

Any way my system makes so sense, except to me :x

I've got my bookmarks in Chrome. It used to be a big old mess, but then I organised everything into folders and sub-folders. Even then, there's still a "unsorted" folder for stuff I'm not sure how to bookmark.

I delicious/diigo fic that I've read and want to bookmark, but I keep forgetting to update it, so there's a folder in my bookmarks for fics that I need to add onto delicious/diigo.

I have some book marks, for sites I don't visit every day, but like to check out every once in a while.

I use Pinterest for recipes and other random stuff such as that.
And I don't bookmark fics. I should cause some I just fall in love with, but I think there are probably thousands out there I still haven't read and need to, so I just need to keep moving on. LIke the Littlest Hobo, maybe tomorrow I'll wanna settle down, until tomorrow I'll just keep moving on.

I also use pinboard for fic bookmarking, but only stuff I've already read. Things I want to read go into my chrome bookmarks, which are kind of a giant jumble and therefore not actually that useful. I do have some bookmark folders (fic to read, things to download, recipes, etc etc), but there are usually way too many things in each folder so they aren't acutally that useful. My pinboard stuff is all nicely tagged and findable, though! :)

Wow. After reading through the comments on this post, I realize that I am so behind on being organized on the internet.

I just use my favorites bar for sites because, yes, I still need to upgrade from IE.

And then I just use livejournal posts to make myself lists of links of specific posts, what-have-you that I want to either come back to or save. That's always worked for me, though it's so simple, I know.

And I used to use the memory function here a ton, but I got so behind and figured I'd never be able to catch up. So I mass deleted everything I had in my memories probably around a month ago. It was over 50,000 of them.

Sorry for the late reply on this. I've just been catching up on posts, and I'm always curious about this kind of stuff. :)
