I am on a kick to try to keep my inbox to one screen, so I don't have to page down. Because of this, I have created lots more folders. One of my folders is called READING, which is something I don't have time to do right now, but when I have discretionary time, I will read it. I laughed at myself just now, because I am NEVER going to get around to reading that article, but I don't want it to go away forever, on the off chance that I do get around to reading it. Believe it or not, this loose organization actually works for me.
Yesterday, I went to a file of URLs that I want to revisit, and actually looked through a couple. I found out that for the most part they are not relevant any more. This all leads me to believe that it is about letting things go. Why cannot I not just delete that article, or forget that URL? This is my safety net to know that I might be able to track it down through my URL file, or my READING folder.
I guess I could just have faith that if I really need to read it, the universe will send it my way again.
This doesn't support your "letting things go" thesis, but you might want to check out del.icio.us if you haven't already. Major sanity-saver for URLs you might want to revisit.
