Very cool. 
And, I'm also embarrassed now, because I guess I could use Google Keep (similar to onenote) and google docs to do something like this.  Should'a thought of that.

I open it, then close it and it will be in my browser history.

That does work. Just looking for something I could use to add a note as to why I was interested in it too.
I am quite addle-brained and often am intensely interested in something that I later look at and wonder why it was important to me.

Why not use your browser's bookmark ability?
|
|
|
|
|
probably just because I've got years of old bookmarks in there that I'm afraid to get rid of, also I'm lazy so basically it comes down to :

You can organise your browser bookmarks in multi-level folders. So I have a bunch of "permanent" bookmarks classified into folders, and a couple of "temporary" folders for your kind of usage. Delete them when read, or purge regularly. Or if it's a good'un, move it to somewhere in your permanents.

Every couple of months I run the "All Bookmarks" browser in firefox. It lets me add folders, and I can add comments, though I usually don't. It also lets me change the name of the bookmark from the html title of the page to whatever I want, which is usually shorter.

I use browser bookmarks - Chrome at least can have multiple folders and subfolders, so I have a lot of folders to navigate for some shortcuts.
The nice bit is that they gets "shared" across devices, so my desktop, Surface, and Android phone all get the same ones.

I utilize Microsoft Edge It has a handy "Collections" feature which is conveniently activated via a button on the address bar I utilize it to collect web sites into categories which it supports In my usage e.g. to wit i.e. "Software Testing" "Computer Hardware" "C++" "News" "Dictionary" "Video" "Edge" "Tastey" "Software Development" "Science" "Music" and others Each category contains any number of urls - Cheerio

I save them in the favorites. I have a Read Later folder.
|
|

|

I just pull them from the URL line into a directory, dragging by the icon immediately preceding the text URL. I made myself a directory named 'Rechts' where I can sort the URLs in groups in multiple levels, I can search the page titles, sort on date saved etc.
Most of all: I can do all the browser cleanup (history, bookmarks, ...) I want to do every now and then. Even reinstall Windows from scratch, to get rid of a lot of garbage in one sweep. (I keep all 'useful' files, including the Rechts directory, on other disks than C: and I've got a wizard-like tool for reinstalling all application software on C: after I have reinstalled Windows.)
The Links are included in my backup plan. They can be used with any browser (at least all those that I use). I can add supplementary files in the Rechts directory (e.g. a username/pw reminder - note that I said 'reminder', not the pw itself!)

I use Slant[^] for recommendations, and also the list with URL's under my profile to find something, it does not have any advanced searching options though.
Here are some bookmark managers[^]

Chrome has a tab at the end of the Bookmarks bar titled "Reading list".

If it's an interesting website I save it to my bookmarks.
If it is an article that I want to "save" I use CutePDF to print it to a PDF file and store it in a folder.

I highly recommend viewing this YouTube video ...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7y9GAn5KF4E 'Using Zotero and Freeplane for research'
He started using Freeplane (a mindmapping tool) to record his web and business activities, then later added Zotero to extend its capabilities.
Both Freeplane and Zotero are open-source and free, and each have their own Wikipedia entries.
From his YouTube video, follow his channel to get several more useful tips.
I maintain my Web activities chronologically in a very large single mindmap, and occasionally export interesting chunks to new mindmaps specialising in a particular category. Or zip up a small map (readable text html) and email it to a friend/colleague. The map can be searched to quickly locate any page that was annotated eg 'codeproject' or 'raspberry pi'.

Fear Of Missing Out. If I didn't bother to read it now, I'll probably never read it. Of if its important, I'll find it again. And for me, I need less online reading and more focus on what is actually productive in my life.

I use organized folders of bookmarks, and drag and drop the LOCK icon into the correct one.
So, I have one for future reading, then by topic. I add topics as I discover.
But I have experienced a few problems. One, due to censorship, I have clicked those links and been taken to alternative information or a 404 or a message telling me the article was forced down. How nice!
The biggest one, is when the link CYCLES after 90 days to a more recent topic. Not Cool!
And when I am doing research, I use an outliner, and I will store the links there, with tons of notes while I do my research.
But tons of bookmarks. The one upside is when I open a page, and I see the STAR, I know I already planned on reading this...

I use PearlTrees. I would rather have a system that allowed me to use multiple tags, rather than putting a link in multiple folders, but it works for me right now from any browser on any system.

If it doesn't come in a pdf (or a single web page) that I can rename and date, I usually don't save it. And that's only if it deals with my immediate subject of interest. Later, everything gets archived with the project (no dead links).

I use my browsers "bookmarks". Don't see what would be limiting with that, as I can easily create topics folders...

I use Chrome, It has what is called a "reading list."
