I'm conducting some research for my idea and would like your help. Here's a simple question for you
Roughly how many articles do you think you save to Pocket in a day?
I don't use Pocket but a similar tool. I save fewer than half a dozen articles in a day.
Interesting. Which tool do you use?
Also, do you have unread articles piling up?
I use Google Keep to save articles for later with its official Chrome extension as a web clipper. I tag those notes with the label Later.
I don't have many unread articles as I practice "inbox zero for reading", so I don't let articles pile up. I read most or all items within a day or two of saving.
I save probably ~2 articles a day, though on the weekends that might go up to ~5 as I catch up on reading newsletters from the week
