There are two types of bookmarkers: The one who put a piece of paper, sometimes artfully decorated, between the pages and those who fold the corner of their book, at times developing an intricate system. Which one are you?

I belong in the camp of folding corners. Mostly when I pick up a book I don't think about putting it down. Overcome by real life I'm frantically looking for (a) a place to safely put the book, and (b) a way to remember what passage I last read. The system of folding the corner of the page + making a fine indent at the exact line with your finger nail has proven fail proof. You book can fall out of your bag, be snatched away by kids or tumble down 1000s flights of stairs and you can effortless find your spot.

Unfortunately nowadays most bookmarks carry less weight. It's a click. But without the sound. And as it carries no sound, its meaning diminishes, slowly going to zero.

We used to bookmark sites, at a time when the search bar was less intelligent. Do you remember? Tools existed, and still do, to collect bookmarks as a community, tag them collectively, and bring joy into each others life. We used to curate together. Or at least tried to. Now everyone is creating their own individual second brain. To dump, to stressed, to hurried to remember.

I bookmark tweets, to not forget them. But forget that I bookmark them. It becomes another inbox that never turns to zero as I never do anything with this collection.

My most recent past-time is collecting bookmarks on Farcaster. One for each client. I got supercast-bookmarks, and warpcast-bookmarks. Maybe I start nooks-bookmarks. Warpcast is so friendly to spam my inbox, telling me what casts I marked. But without an inbox zero mentality, I ignore the email. Or do I keep it unread? 24 hours after getting it, I already forgot. I think I deleted it. It feels the right to do, wouldn't you say?

Let's see what I wanted to not forget, the never-ending FOMO...

Morale of the story: Just do it. Right now, right there. There is no perfect moment. Wanna read something: Read. Wanna watch something: Watch. Only exceptions are Dune dashboards (notoriously bad on mobile and that's ok) and information for events like how to turn your NFT into a ticket.
