You spot some interesting content as you browse the Internet but you do not have the time to go through it as you are busy working on something else. So, what do you do to avoid burying the content among dozens of browser tabs you already have open, and make it easier to retrieve it later without wasting precious time?
In the past, the standard techniques of saving content involved copy-pasting the link to your email or bookmarking it on your browser. While those methods are still great for saving your content to peruse later, they are now considered slow and out of date.
