Step 3: Add spaced repetition with Roam Toolkit: chrome.google.com/webstore/detai
For tabs that I want to see again someday (don't want to drop in blackhole: CTRL+SHIFT+4); ones I want to pop up sooner (`CTRL+SHIFT+1` --> pops up again tmrw)

Step 4: The tabs will show up in the linked references for daily notes: at which point I have the option of 1) bumping it again (CTRL+SHIFT+3, for ex., if they don't feel super relevant rn, or CTRL+SHIFT+1 to come back to it again sooner), and/or 2) connect it to the idea graph

"connecting to idea graph" = often connecting it to a "conceptual hook" (e.g., page about key idea or question, or a person/project)
Once linked, I take it out of tab list, but leave in daily notes page: lots of rich context in timeline that increases the "surface" area of idea

SRS = "spaced repetition systems" - traditionally associated with memorization, but I'm inspired by and 's stretching of the notion to more expansive applications for knowledge work. One key idea is using SRS to achieve more control over attention.
