You are starting from a false assumption. Not everyone loses track of such things. Not everyone compiles lists and tabs of such things to begin with.

It sounds like you are trying to find a solution for an existing (but flawed) solution... instead of asking: What problem am I trying to solve that makes me collect all this stuff in the first place?

Well for me the problem lies in that I'm in the middle of researching something, and I find a resource that would be useful for something that I would do later. But that later is days or weeks away, and when I need the thing I saved it is often very hard to find. When you need something you saw a while ago, do you just search for it again instead?
