# Blank Bookmarks Slate

Like anybody else, I keep my ideas organized in web browser's bookmarks. And like many others, it is a mess. An endless collection of folders and piles of cooking recipes, website inspirations, stuff I'd like to buy one day (that I surely don't need anymore), or countless ideas I’ve since lost interest in.

Lately, I've been noticeing a trend... Whenever I need to find something, I just can't. I know it's there, I know I have, without question, bookmarked it. But with the sheer volume of items, the one thing I need just doesn't want to surface.

I've done partial cleanups in the past. Deleting certain sections, but mostly non-work-related bits. Today I decided to get rid of them all. To wipe the slate clean. This archive if everything and nothing, at the same time, is not usefull to me anymore. I am starting fresh. I know that infinite labyrinth of folders and bookmarks will inevitably be rebuilt back soon enough. I am not worried.
