Deleting My Bookmarks
As writers, we collect, save, and apply information. So much so, we end up with physical and online clutter. Bookmarks are a great example.
If I go by Pareto principle (correct me if I’m wrong), about 20% of all the websites I save are the ones I go to all the time. And about 80% are those I’ve been there once and never come back. I’m a pack rat and deleting unused bookmarks can be painful.
I can’t believe how many bookmarks I’ve saved throughout the years. Many have broken links and there are websites I wonder why I saved them in the first place. I might as well take screenshots of the information on my phone and go back to them when I need them.
Anyway, I feel so much better deleting all the bookmarks I don’t need. One less thing to worry about (until I start collecting more).
