How do you stay organized during online research?

Before launching Collabwriting (collabwriting.com/extension), I was constantly drowning in a sea of spreadsheets, links, and google docs with a million tabs open at all times. Does anyone have any tips, best practices, or software they use to stay on top of everything?

@soumyachaturvedi could not have said better. You'll get too overwhelmed with so much information in front of you. Firstly, collect everything and read it through. That way you can see whether it's relevant for your research or not and you can segment it according to it.

@soumyachaturvedi @sandra_idjoski We mainly use Trello and we find it pretty convenient for our projects :)

As a very first step I collect all the blogs, websites and google sheets/docs works best for me

@soumya_chaturvedi Definitely good options, relied on those for a really long time until our team started to grow.
