(b) the completely unpredictable ebb and flow of laziness vs. compulsiveness, (c) whatever will most likely lead to crying and gnashing of teeth when I can't find stories I want to find again even when I'm pretty sure I save the story and/or the link somewhere
Um, yes, this is basically the story of my life. ;____; I can get into industrious OCD frenzies, and then get completely overwhelmed and abandon the project entirely. That's what I hate the most, when things are left half somewhere and half elsewhere, half tagged and half not tagged.
can we have an internet-wide magical fic-reading history device next, please?
I vote yes! I'm interested in seeing what will come of tho AO3 bookmarking feature, but since it's still in beta and I don't have an account, I haven't been exploring it. And however popular the AO3 gets, there are still going to be authors (maybe a lot of authors?) who chooose not to archive their fic there; those stories going to need a separate bookmarking site, and I'm not thrilled about collecting stories in yet another location when it isn't going to be comprehensive. So I'm waiting and watching on that front.
