I use Evernote's Web Clipper to save resources. I make sure to tag them so that I can find them easily. I am trying out Session Buddy right now. If I am working on something specific but I need to stop for some reason, I save the session so that I can come back to it later.

Do you ever find Evernote has an overwhelming feature set? I gotten a bit lost each time I've tried with it and have fallen off each time I've tried using it.

haha, you promoted me to take a look at what all I can do with. There is definitely a lot. I just learned that you can have newsletters delivered right to it to keep your inbox clean. I'm going to have to try that :)

I just use it for two things though: bookmarking and note taking.

I think it may have been simpler in the past. It has definitely feature-creeped.

Session Buddy looks like a great extension! Would love to hear your thoughts on it after you've used it more.

I have tried one after another, each time it was too improductive as I have vast interests in many stuffs so I have finally decided to build a whole system based on new format called the ReAdABLE human format, so I can quickly collect, organize and publish at the same time or at differed time depending on context and needs. You can see for example this mybookmarks.space/deming/ is a markdown page generated from this one github.com/lepinekong/mybookmarks/...

All you need is red-lang.org (1 Mb download) and clone the repo. There is VSCode extension for that language to make this more pleasant and you can create VSCode Snippet example given here mycodesnippets.space/readable/vsco... also in the same ReAdABLE format.

I'm now having 30 sites like that just to store many stuffs from bookmarks to todolist, user stories , articles, anything in easy and quick to write structured format even quicker than markdown (I will write the 3rd article on redlang soon on devto as I stopped to do so after 2nd one dev.to/lepinekong/red-for-hopeless...) etc.
