Do you have some system for queueing/prioritizing all kinds of inputs (books, blog posts, videos, etc) that works for you and lets you process them at a pace that you find satisfying?

If you do, please share.

If you don't, what have you tried. What didn't work? What worked at least partially? Or maybe you think that this is the wrong way to think about it?

In my browser, I have folders "articles I want to read", "books I want to read", and "movies I want to see" (not exactly these names). The movies folder typically contains links to IMDB, but could also be a Wikipedia page or anything.

To be honest, I actually do not read the articles most of the time. The folder just keeps growing.

The books, at some moment I download them (the ones I can find) and place them on my reader. That makes them likely to be read at some moment when I am away from the computer, having my reader with me.

The movies, when I have free time, I check my folder, download something and watch it.

I use RSS a lot, adds some articles to read in wallabag, annotate them there then create anki cards from the annotations.
