There is no way that you can remind everything that you have read. Specially the things that you have read in the web.
The tool which is I'm gonna talk about is really helps me to do my project to solve the problem regarding the above matter. You know there are lot of stuff to read when doing a masters project. It's a good tool which keep everything in-order. That keeps everything what you have read in the web in a manageable way, so you can later look back and put on to your minds again.
Before moving on I would like to share the first advice we received from our supervisor.
"Pl continue reading the related literature (research papers, phd thesis etc) related to your topic. if reading a PhD thesis reading the introduction, literature review, design and evaluation chapters would help in understanding the related past work.
Also you need to create a private blog or a google site for the project. Keep updating important URLs, reflections, critical reviews, design-implementation- evaluation design decisions etc as it is useful in compiling the dissertation subsequently."
So you know, I'm posting this thing because of the later part of the above paragraph. Anyway in a someday this might be helpful for another student to carry on with the project.
Zotero, the tool that keeps every URL in a better way to look back again. There are lot of tools that do the same thing. But now I'm used to Zotero so I'm moving with it. It's freely available and a software that comes with a browser plug-in which ever you prefer. I use Chrome and Firefox, so do not have any issues up to now.
After installing it you just need to create the folder structure in the software as you preferred. Thereafter whenever you thinks that the web page that you are reading would be useful and that need to reminded for any future use, you just need to right click on the web page. With the menu appears you can simply select to save the web page on Zotero.
Today reading the article to get to know about Research Methods.
