Bookmark Management

AMEN

I've been using Bookmark Sentry to achieve the same thing.

I added Bookmark Sentry to Chrome and gave it a go.

It resulted in a list which is more complicated and colorful to read and implement than AM Deadlink. In fact I found it confusing.

AM Deadlink is simple, much more user friendly, less cluttered and infinitely easier to use. So although BS is stylish and somewhat impressive in design and layout, I dumped it in favor of simple efficiency.

AMD has cleaned my Chrome up to only 1,300 Bookmarks. My Firefox has 5,000 bookmarks, but I do not use this browser very often and have no wish to waste my time cleaning up the Bookmarks. Let them rot until such time as I find it necessary to clean them up.

Whether one needs so many Bookmarks is irrelevant and of only cosmetic consideration. I chose to save them, so until I choose to delete them, they stay.

Whilst browsers include a Bookmark Save button as a user facility, then the unstoppable Tsunami of Bookmarks will continue. It is solely dependent on user behavior and nothing else. No market forces, no reduction in demand, no epidemic of link deaths, no bogey man - just the habitual mouse clicks of countless millions of users throughout the world.

The presence of huge Bookmark lists on a users PC is not a science. You do not need a Masters Degree to decide whether to Bookmark an item, it is simply a compulsive attitude on the part of users. Purely "Oh, that`s interesting, I`ll Bookmark it" and unknowingly, before long you have several thousand stashed away.

Have space - will fill.

SuperFast?

No it isn't. Perhaps a distant cousin on the tabs side.

SuperFast?

:lol: Abducted by aliens I think.

I use chrome to manage my bookmarks. I have 428 bookmarks according to google dashboard. I have them organized into folders based on what they are for(school, forums, teaching ideas, technology websites, ect.) The majority of them are things I come across as I'm looking for new ideas to use when I teach. I don't really worry about checking them to make sure they work or not, when I click them if they are dead I just delete it then. I know some people used to use things like delicious to maintain their bookmarks but with chrome they are just available everywhere(phone, laptop, desktop, ipad, whatever)

325 "favorites" in 23 folders.

Rename them as they are saved so they tell me where they go.

For example, one is Piriform Forums, another right below it is Piriform Forums Malware Rules.

Manage'em all using windows explorer.

If I forget I go in with windows explorer and rename them.

May not be so easy soon, when Firefox becomes the default browser.
