I take that to mean that if you found something on the net but it requires in-depth study or concentration than don’t leave the tab open but instead put it on your TODO list (whatever mechanism) and not add another mechanism in the form of random tabs. Just closing and thus forgetting a page discards knowledge (because in all likelihood you will not find the pager later again) and I doubt that discarding knowledge is a good idea.
Yeah, that’s pretty much exactly what I mean. Leaving tabs open is an unorganized and unprioritized way to remind you to do things later (read the tabs and figure out when you want to read the tabs). There’s better ways, so you’re better off using those instead. Even a notepad file with tasks (URLs to read) is better than leaving tons of tabs open—when you have time and want to read things, you have everything you need right there.
