Keeping a reading list that works for you
A reading list can help you stay informed. With a bit of care, a collection of links becomes a resource you keep learning from.
A simple approach
A reading list doesn't need to be complicated. Our fictional reading-list app, Margin, stores a title, URL, and category for each link. You can filter by category and bookmark items you want to return to. Everything stays in your browser. There's no account or cloud sync, which keeps things simple.
Building better habits
A weekly review helps you keep a growing collection of articles under control. Remove links you no longer want to read. Keep the ones that connect to a project you are working on. The habit pays off over time.
The goal is a reading list that makes the most of your time. A small, focused list can be more useful than an extensive collection you never open.
