This is where tab browsing shines! Dump the IE and download Firefox.
Use separate browser windows for separate inquiries, but pursue links
associated with the search within the same window and in separate tabs!
Much easier to keep thing organized.
Example two searches for 'widgets' and 'doohickies'. In one window
Google 'widgets' and the other 'doohickies'.
As Google lists links for 'widgets' open a few in tabs for that window,
while loading you can do the same for the 'doohickies' search in the
other window.
By using tabs, the original search listings are preserved in the 1st tab
of each window for each line of inquiry. Regardless of how deep you
pursue a link in one of the associated tabs you can quickly find your
way back to the original listing by switch to the top tab without the
back button list, reloading, or hunting for the original listing window
taskbar among all the others. The taskbar will only have 2 windows
listed, one for each inquiry 'widgets' & 'doohickies' even if you had 10
tabs 'working' for each as opposed 20 if all were in separate browser
instances...
