Really appreciate all the value add! @Corvida: You could utilize the same system. Just delete the bookmarklet from the public browser when you're done. @GTDWannabe, Engtech and Joanna: Thanks for your awesome systems and tips! Really appreciate all the value add!

I have my own little system, just wanted to share.. :-) I will post it again in my blog with screenshots etc Firstly, I created 6 or so toread.cc accounts, using 6 different email addresses. I have assigned a particular common theme to each one, (e.g. All the stuff I find about music get sent to mymusic@myemail.com ). Each time you sign up to toread.cc, you are provided with a link that can be saved just like any other favourite/bookmark. So in my case there are 6 links, and I have a little bookmark folder in my favourites with each link. I named the folder "File as..." and every time I want to save a web page about, for example, music, I will click on the "Music" entry. Clicking this automatically sends the page to my mymusic@myemail,com. It is important that the email addresses enable forwarding. (Luckily enough for me I pay for Premium fastmail.fm - which allows me to create new email addresses in seconds and have them foward to wherever I want.) So, what I've then done is set up a Gmail account dedicated for all my 'web stuff', knowing that all my 6 email addresses are forwarding to this account. Within Gmail, I have created labels and filters that correspond to the 6 different topics. The filters ensure that emails get labelled according to theme (For example, I tell Gmail to label all emails sent to "shoppinglist@mailbox.com" as "SHOPPING"). I think it's a great service because not only does it automatically store all your stuff, it's in fact more reliable that bookmarking the page the standard way because it sends the page as stored in the cache. This guarantees that you will always be able to see that page, even if it is eventually removed online. So anyhow, I hope other people will find my 'system' helpful Joanna I just wanted to follow up about toread.cc – I was actually starting to think I was the only one who knew about this great little service.

It's so good, that I've even gone through some stale emails and stuck their links in there too. It's a similar concept, but completely outside of email, which I like. You just click the bookmarklet when you find a page/link you want to read later. Then, when bored, click on another button and a random (or not) page comes up for you to read. It's much better than the old way of creating "temporary" bookmarks. I’ve recently started using the Read It Later (http://www.ideashower.com/ideas/active/read-it-later/) extension for FireFox.
