I use RTM for Fast Online Bookmarking Links from Twitter.

Hey guys,

Beside the other activities I'm tied to, I'm a front-end web developer/designer.

I use Twitter as my main source for new links of inspiration.

Here's one problem, it's hard to keep track of the links I would like to check back to later. I have tried:

1. Favoriting the tweets of the links (hard to filter).

2. Bookmarking on Del.icio.us (too slow on mobile).

3. Putting them in Evernote (cannot tag via Twitter).

4. Bookmarking in the Browser (not available in my other browsers).

So, RTM is the perfect solution for my situation.

After tweeting the link, such as, "The Ultimate Programming Cheat Sheet List For Web Designers http://bit.ly/ha5fs" to my public timeline.

I DM it to my RTM account like such, "d rtm The Ultimate Programming Cheat Sheet List For Web Designers http://bit.ly/ha5fs #prg #design #cheatsheet"

I love it this way because it's fast and reliable (they're stored online).

Also, the tags make it easy to search for the things I need at the moment.

And I wouldn't have to worry about forgetting to back them up when I reformat my Mac!

You gotta love it.

This is a great idea. I'm in the same boat - a webmaster - and often use twitter to track/bookmark the articles I'd like to read. Right now I have IFTTT shot them over to my Evernote, but they are getting lost in the shuffle. I already have a "Reading List" in RTM. Oh, it's on!
Thank you!!
