Hi everyone, I am the manager of a placement consultancy and have to spend a lot of time online looking for potential information. This consumes a lot of time, but the most time is wasted when I open certain links and find that they are of not any use to me. Because of this, I would have to wait for the window to only find that the information for me is useless. I am looking an answer that can help to minimize the work-load.

Just open your search results 'in a new tab' that way if the information is bad you can close it and go straight back to the results.

Sounds like the problem lies with the computer, or connection speed. Get a faster one, and you won't have to wait long for it to load, right?

A) Get Firefox.
B) Open stuff in new tabs so you can keep browsing.
C) Optional: Get a faster connection.


Also, it'd be a pretty complex program to know exactly what information you needed and prevent you accessing links that don't have this info. I'm no techie, but I'm pretty sure it's not going to happen any time soon.

I really wish people would stop pushing FireFox, IE has tabbed browsing.

Try bookmarking the links or opening them up in new tabs so you can easily go back to the original page.

I believe that you have a problem with the opening of multiple windows. You do not want to open all the links that a page ahs but you would also not like to miss the important ones. I think that the solution to your problem can be clickless browsing that can help you to view the contents of a page that has alternate links without taking the trouble of opening a new web page for them. This will certainly reduce your work load as you will be saving your time and efforts which will reduce your physical and mental exertion and help you to do more work and hence minimize the work load. You can easily download this free software from here.
All the best!
