Is it normal to have way too many bookmarks?

I wanted to know if it is common to archive bookmarks in your browser, of things that you think are gonna be important, yet having the feeling that it is otherwise, almost like an addiction, and carrying on to bookmark lots of so called useful pages or interesting stuff to the point that you have 2000+ and then trying to delete some yet being almost unable to do it?

    I am disappointed. I thought this was going to be about actual bookmarks. I have one with a sad horse on it that says "Will you be my friend?"

          Oh, maybe you still do. I may have been imposing my own lack of literature intake as of recent onto you. My bad :P

      I thought this too. I pictured a plethera of pink tassels on pictures of unicorns and quotes from the Bible, lots of cute puppies and kittens, and really bad inspirational quotes.

    So you hoard them?

    Can't you make file folders for them and organize them? That way you don't have to delete any.

    I have too many bookmarks too. I have so many that I can never find the one I am looking for. However chrome has given us a solution. "bookmark manager"! Ok I hate google for ruining youtube but the manager is very helpful.

      What's the difference between that and using Firefox Library?

            I dont have firefox. Only computer nerds are going to know every single browser and what it does. I do not care. I only downloaded chrome since I needed the update. I do not care enough about this issue to give you a real answer. I am not one of those people saying "I AM SO BADASS! I HAVE CHROME!" Do you realize how stupid that sounds? Its a browser! Why should people fight over a stupid browser?

    Wow, 2000+!

    Do you really have that many? If so, you certainly weren't exaggerating when you said you had WAY too many.

    I have around 50 or better myself, which is normal. They're all organized into folders and I regularly go through them to clean out ones I don't need.

    I don't really see anything wrong here unless the obsession is hindering your ability to function normally in everyday life. If that's the case, then you should seek professional help.

      Oh not really, it's just it is a bit of a crutch to pick a webpage and bookmark it (not just any page) but like, for example stuff like "size conversion chart" or a wallpaper website. I don't care much about it other than every other day I add 10-20 more to my dubious collection.

      I organized some of them into folders, but those aren't counted. Some of them are videos that cannot be saved into accounts and the rest is news, q&a, info, lists and interesting stuff.

      I guess I have to go through them yet again...such a pain. Imagine also that I have like a 200 of them that are just Youtube videos I couldn't be bothered to add into my Youtube account because it's easier to click the right hand star icon.

          That is probably the one solution that will keep it together. Still, far too many unrelated ones I need to remove, and I will.
