  • For the most part I simply... don't. Either I remember the address, because I type it in all the time, or I go search for it when I need it.

    I have not used browser bookmarks in any serious way since the '90s. They kept getting lost, moving from one machine or browser to the next, and I lost interest.

    Sometimes I do keep a file of notes as I work on a project, and I'll paste URLs in there if they link to relevant documents or services. For one project I collected so many of these links that I eventually posted them in the repo:
