Organise Bookmarks Better
March 30, 2026
How am I meant to organize bookmarks in U-Mind? Are they meant to be within one board and sub-grouped into clusters like technology, holiday, trips, whatever, or am I meant to have separate boards for each categorization of bookmarks? Completed 1 step Both patterns are possible in YouMind, but it is primarily designed around one board per project/topic, then clusters or groups inside that board for sub-themes. Boards: what they're for Boards are framed as project workspaces that hold all your saved sources, notes, highlights, and drafts around a specific outcome (article, series, presentation, client, etc.). The idea is that everything you need to create something on that topic lives on that one board, rather than having scattered, generic "tech" or "travel" buckets. Organising inside a board Within a board you can group "materials" (your bookmarks, clips, PDFs, videos, etc.) into clusters or groups, acting like sub-folders such as Research, Quotes, Tech tools, Italy trip ideas, and so on. You can drag items between groups and reorder them, so one well-scoped board with clear internal groups usually stays easier to navigate than dozens of tiny boards. When to make separate boards Separate boards work best when: You have distinct outputs or projects: e.g. Book Club - March novel, Photography newsletter, Summer 2026 Italy trip, each with its own drafts) and set of references. You want to collaborate or share only some bookmarks/drafts; sharing is at the board level, so different audiences often imply different boards. A practical setup for you Given how you work, a good pattern would be: Create boards by project or major area of work: e.g. "The Book Club", "Photography Essays", "2026 Travel Plans*. Inside each board, make groups/clusters for Technology, Holiday ideas, Trips, Background reading, etc., and drop bookmarks into those clusters rather than making a separate board for every small category. If you describe two or three of your real use cases (e.g. book club, newsletter, upcoming trip), a concrete board-and-cluster layout can be drafted for each.
