Is it my Asperger makes me saves to bookmarks, almost any interesting web page on which I enter, I have categorized them in probably 20 if not more sub directories?

I don't think that's part of the diagnostic criteria, no....


If it were all to do with a special interest, then maybe, but just bookmarking stuff isn't a symptom of AS.

Probably not. I have about 200 pages bookmarked because I can't bring myself to delete them. All that goes through my head is "What if I need them later?" I never need them later. Ever.

I think that it is.

Having to save, categorize, organize, attend to, and keep of track all these little things is a typical autistic behavior.

I have no bookmarks in my browser, because if I had bookmarks, then I would have to do what you are doing. I don't want to do that, so my rule is to have no bookmarks in my browser.
