Best way to organize tabs?

How do you organize you tabs?
The majority of the tabs I use are on ultimate guitar and given to wail. I have started using the favorites function on ultimate guitar but finding the tab is still sometimes difficult. Scrolling mid-song is a pain.. I was debating about printing out tabs? Kinda seems like a waste.. How do you organize your tabs so that they are easy to find and easy to play from?

I print some of them out and put them in a binder alphabetically. I don't always staring at my computer screen when I'm learning a song. I like to have a hard copy.

When printing them out I use a Case-It zippered ring binder with tabs (literal folder tabs, not guitar tabs) and arrange them alphabetically by artist then within each artist's section they're alphabetical by song title. The Case-It has a handle and strap so it is excellent for taking along when I travel with my guitar -- especially when going camping or somewhere without wifi or 3G. Edited to add ... a really nice feature of the Case-it is it has extra little pockets for things like extra picks, or stashing a pen to make the inevitable tab corrections, etc.

When I don't feel like dealing with all the BS popups and aggravating re-directs on Ultimate Guitar (sorry, on the iPhone that site is possibly the most annoying thing on the internet) I just take a screen shot with my phone then it's in my with my photos. I really prefer to use dedicated sites run by fans or artists (for example, giventtowail for PJ (obviously), and cygnusproductions.com for Rush) because they tend to be more accurate and don't have pop-up-itis. I used the "add to homescreen" option on my iPhone so I can always get my tab sites quickly, you know, for those pesky tab emergencies.
