Socially Inept Bookmarking

When I need to bookmark a site, I don't. Either I remember it, keywords related to it, or send myself an email about it. I don't “do” any social bookmarking services yet, and I don't really care to have a million bookmarks in my browser that I'll never remember to click. So, I stumbled into toread – a simple service (Bookmarklet) that'll send the current page you're viewing to your email address. The ironic part is that I had a bookmark sitting on my desktop to remind myself to tell y'all about it. I would've emailed the link to myself, but… that would have put me in an endless loop of sorts. So, don't bookmark the site – bookmarklet it, then use it whenever you feel the need to bookmark something for future reference. Now, I'm off to see if I can find another service: toeread, a Web 2.0 application that'll help you translate the language of sock fuzz stuck between your tootsies.

Never mind social bookmarks or browser bookmarks or desktop shortcuts. I put interesting links on my blog. Just like for Dori and Tom, it's my backup brain. If it's not worth blogging, it's probably not worth remembering.

I must be old fashioned. When I want to remember a website, I simply add it to my IE favorites. Sometimes, when I feel adventurous, I even create a new favorites folder.
