This past week I started doing some cleaning both of my physical and digital spaces. I realized I had 165 draft emails in my work email account. Why?
Because I use my draft email to collect resources. If I see an article, I want to go back and read, I attach it to a draft email. If I find a link I might want to visit later, I add it to a draft email.
No bookmarks, no repository, just draft emails.
So I am making a change!
Yesterday I added 13 new items to my Diigo library with tags. I still wish the free Diigo was a bit more visually appealing to me. I think I miss having a file based approach. But I am getting better as using tags.
And I am thinking about upgrading to premium for unlimited storage, reading and RSS feeds.
What do you think, are you using Diigo or something else to collect your resources?
I never thought about using an email draft to bookmark before! I think converting the links and resources to Diigo would be a great way to declutter and have all your resources easily accessible!
ReplyDeleteThanks!
ReplyDeleteI use email folders to dump resources into or Google Drive folders. If I want to get to it sooner, I put it on a sticky note on my desktop. I also like the file/folder configuration as it is something that I know, tagging not so much.
