MAIMOM Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 I mean there are so many useful links posted on this site that I have been bookmarking them but....well now I have so many I am not sure I will get through them all. How do you keep track of what you want to hang onto for a later time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
momma2three Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 I have a Word document in outline form with links. It's arranged by subject. When I read about an interesting link or program, I copy it to the document, with a note or two. I don't do it religiously, but every once and a while there's a post here and I think "wow, that sounds awesome. I want to remember that, or I'll never find it again!"

Acorn Island Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 Have you ever heard of Microsoft One Note? It is part of the Microsoft Office set, I think. Anyways, it allows you to take screen clippings, and then organize them into a binder like thing. I have a 'binder' for homeschooling and a separate one for other tips. Then the homeschooling binder has a page for each subject. When I see a good tip, or a link I want to remember, I take a screen clipping. Then I file it into my virtual binder. If I am looking for ideas on a certain subject, like 'foreign languages', for example, I can just flip to that 'binder' and 'page' and there is the info right at my fingertips. I switched to a Mac this year, and sadly, there is no One Note for Macs. I did find something called 'Growly Notes' though, and I use that along with Safari's screen clipper to do basically the same thing. I do like One Note better, though. :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Free Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 At times I use Evernote to copy single posts. But mostly I just tag or subscribe to the threads I want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucy in Australia Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 I have been bookmarking sites (a lot from suggestions on these forums) since I started homeschooling in 2001. I have my bookmarks arranged in folders, and folders within my folders. So I have "Homeschooling" -> "English" -> "Grammar", or "Homeschooling" -> "Maths" -> "Algebra". In the beginning I thought I might be overdoing it (some folders would only have one link for months), but I am SOOOOO grateful now... Now that my folders are so full but I can still browse them quickly enough to make all the links useful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jpoy85 Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 you could make a Bookmark folder in your toolbar and then title each link or subscribe :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
