Three Things!

I have three things because I wanted to make a post about something, and I couldn't come up with more than three that I really wanted to post about.
1. I have a lot of snippets and ficlets lying about in my Google Docs that haven't been posted here because I don't know what to title them. I will take any and all suggestions for how to go about titling things. (There's also a ficlet I don't want to post because they go shopping at Wal-Mart, which is not an activity I endorse. The rest of the story is incest fic involving a non-celebrity sibling.)
2.
bandgirlsbang is happening this year! My pairing is okay! I can totally finish this story by October 15. (I can actually probably finish it and do half the editing by then. \o/) You should also sign up if that is at all your kind of thing.
3. Some friends and I have a fic rec thread where we email recs back and forth. One of said friends today added us to a Google Doc where she's been keeping track of recs - from the thread and not - and other things she wants to read. This is way more centralized than my approach. If I see something in the wild that I want to read but not at the moment, I will either (a) remember how to find it again (for example, I know that one of the things I haven't yet clicked on tagged harry/draco+ewe is a 100K story I think I want to come back to on a weekend) or (b) bookmark it (whether or not I ever come back to those is a different matter). For things on the thread or in other emails, I star the message with the link and tag the thread *fic recs (I also have a **fic recs to read soon tag, which was supposed to help me not have so much stuff in my inbox, but I don't necessarily go look at that tag, so mostly things are in my inbox). How do you keep track of things you want to read but haven't?
