Frankly, I don't think that UltraRecall is the best tool to use for that kind of work.
Personally, I rely on Brainstorm for collecting organising text snippets of information, including URLs. Switch on MagicPaste and anything you copy to the clipboard will go into Brainstorm. You can use a Firefox plug-in to copy URLs along with the selected text.
When you're through collecting, merging / outlining / organising your entries is a piece of cake thanks to Brainstorm's multitude of features.
I mention this here in particular because I find that Brainstorm makes an excellent partner to UltraRecall. I have a "Notes" Brainstorm file at the beginning of each project file I maintain within UltraRecall where I keep whatever I can gather on the project.
UltraRecall is a brilliant Swiss army knife but, like all Swiss army knives, there are some things better left to more specialised tools. Text gathering is one of them; checklists are another (see my previous note on ListPro).
