Either I use links in org-files or I us= e > marks. To each her own, I suppose. I do use both: links in org-files (they are great!) for longer lasting things (I keep a kind of worklog and refer to relevant web pages, places in the source of my project, etc). OTOH, for shorter things, I do use bookmarks quite a lot, especially with short names (like "1", "2", etc). C-x r m 3 and then later C-x r b 3 is just incredibly convenient.
