Because maintaining a large catalogue of bookmarks is a nightmare; good luck finding anything unless you are incredibly meticulous about organizing them. In addition, I think it's a spatial locality thing. I find that I'm a lot more likely to come back to an article/page/etc. if it's still open than I am to remember that I bookmarked it and wanted to come back later.
- maxerickson 12y agoI just had to look up how to do it, but in Firefox you can search bookmarks from the url bar by starting off with a * and a space. (I'm glad I looked it up, this makes me more inclined to make bookmarks without sorting or tagging them)
- dredmorbius 12y agoI Firefox with Vimperator they're included in URL search as you start entering URLs. Based on either the URL or the page title / bookmark description. This ... is exceptionally powerful.
- maxerickson 12y agoYeah, bookmarks are included like that with the standard search bar too, but I keep a lot of history so they don't really stand out.
- dredmorbius 12y agoThey're distinguished as you type in Vimperator, and you can arrow up/down through the list to specific targets.
