I store other sites in my head. Between that and tabs I access over 500 tabs across multiple devices!!! -Ralph 5532 in my Bookmarks. Do you visit 5532 sites regularly or just bookmark everything? -Ralph |

5532?! Surely using Google for the infrequently visited is far easier/ tidier?

I have about 20 bookmarks at home and a similar number at work. And no tabs kept open at the end of a session.
That's as much as the Internet deserves.

I just can't conceive of ever looking at so many sites. The hub for Transfomers, bbc and the guardian for news and that's pretty much me. There are some apps on my phone for various things so they do the same job. Beyond that I just keep bookmarks for particularly random things I come across that I might use for work.

I wonder how many of the 5532 web pages still exist? I ran a bookmark checker on those I'd saved for 10 years and a large number had disappeared. There weren't even backups in the Internet Archive.

It's a good question....
Every so often I go looking for a resource I've bookmarked and discover it's no more!
A good hundred or so of those 5000+ bookmarks are threads on the forum here.

So I can find them quickly and easily.
All the toy line threads are bookmarked, makes much easier navigation than hunting through pages or using the dodgy search function

We now see the truth! Ralph does not have a tabs problem, Phil has a bookmark problem! We must help him.

I will say this, the forums search can be dodgy. But I don't see how having a hundred bookmarks is any easier to remember how to navigate through.

Mind you, probably don't need the Will Pinwig find Legion Thunderhoof thread bookmarked anymore... quite a few found me in the end...

Too right, everything in it's place and a place for everything Mind you, probably don't need the Will Pinwig find Legion Thunderhoof thread bookmarked anymore... quite a few found me in the end... Oh you never know.... .... it does say it possibly needs an edit though! |

Just made a new bookmark. It's about powdery mildew. Thought you all should know 🙂

Powdery mildew? Not a euphemism I hope.

No need for a bookmark for a site/page accessed once.
