A Web Reminder

dragging favicon onto the taskbar to create reminder

Once in a while you will see something on the Internet that requires more attention, but your time at the moment might be limited. But if you leave page without writing some kind of the reminder, it is likely that you'll forget to come back.

At first, I bookmarked pages in a folder "To visit". Unfortunately, solution was far from perfect. I usually forgot to check this folder.

After a time I came to real good solution. Drag the site favicon onto the taskbar! You will see it every time you start computer, so it is not likely that you will miss it. And it is also very accessible - just click the icon and you are on the site. And finally, it is very easy to delete it after you visit the page - just chose "Delete" from the context menu.
