If I don't get to it today, there is going to be even more tomorrow, and I won't have more time tomorrow. By the next day there will be even more. I find that I can't get to read /everything/ I want. If I don't get to stuff in a few days, the tabs get closed, and I move on. Nothing personal, but 300-500 tabs seems like the electronic equivalent of those recluse homes with newspapers and magazines piled six feet high everywhere with just a maze to navigate to the refrigerator and the bathroom.
