Ask HN: How do you save HN posts you have read or want to come back to?

Upvote them. You can see them if you click on your username, and then "saved stories" after that.

I use getpocket.com

I use a bookmarking service (Pinboard) as I do for all pages I consider that I might need to get back to at some point. I also have the Pinboard archival service that saves a copy of the web page in case that goes away.

I use the Save-To-Read add-on for Firefox. It bookmarks the page I want to a pre-set folder and then I can click a button when I want to start reading (random or chronological order) or I can just cherry pick from the folder.

I started using evernote's web clipper to just save all articles, blog posts, etc that I read. Clipping the articles easily stays under the free tier and that way I can easily sift through tags and search to find articles I read in the past. I used to think "Oh, it'll be easy to find with a google search later". Turns out that's not really true, and it's much easier to keep your own searchable archive.

I am using Pocket (http://getpocket.com) to do this. And i do this to make my personal reading list.

We are in beta. Invite Code: HN

disclaimer: I am the developer behind it.

Pocket works fine for me. I have it both on browser and android, so no matter what I am doing I can read.

I have a script that pulls my upvotes from HN and posts them on my bookmarks site tagged "hackernews": http://aaron.pk/bookmarks/

With the browser plugin of http://favtool.com and I add tags 'HN' and 'read later' and eventually more descriptive tags.
