Some times you have strange obsessions or a strange mindset related to your technological habits. And you might easily think that it is only you that is weird, not thinking straight. If you are the only one doing something, you are probably wrong.
And then, hopefully, there are nice personal blog posts like this one, showing you that you are not alone having some peculiar habits and so that it might make sense even if most people don't even think about it.
I have the exact same feeling when I discover through hn, blog posts and events that I'm not the only one having my web browsers full of tabs. Literally having thousand of tabs.
