I do a variant on the suggestion by @birnim : copy the link to a text file along with a quick synopsis of what I think the article is about and why I care.

That helps me let go of articles that are interesting but too far afield, and it holds me accountable when I review my "study notes" file.

Next step: save to knowledge base with some quick notes.

This process helps me cut down on less productive reading.

@monkey1 @birnim The approach is good. I also maintain (not very carefully, unfortunatelly) a list of links in org file, but also glancing at wallbag.

@abcdw @monkey1 simpler is better almost always. also, adapting basic programs that are already used for new tasks works great as well. for example I use fossil (the version control) as CMS for a simple site, pastebin, forum, niche wiki
