Side question: Is there an opportunity to hack on this? It feels like a critical part of my internet life that's very disorganized (compared to photos, files etc...).
I use direct links on the Firefox bookmarks toolbar for sites I use frequently, like timesheets. I use folders for items I use less frequently, but still often.<p>I have a Current folder for sites I want to read, that I try to purge periodically. And I've tried Firefox tags which seems to be the ideal way of keeping bookmarks, but rarely search by tag so not sure it's worth it.<p>Firefox bookmarks sync is nice to us between browsers, but i end up having both personal bookmarks and work bookmarks. Ideally it would be good to keep them separate but yet to find a clean & easy solution.
I don't. I use them like bookmarks on dead tree books. When I find an interesting page, I slap one on it so it stands out if I ever want to find it again.<p>If you use bookmarks so much that you think about how to organize them, organizing them is going to be hell, and you're bound to find lots split between two categories. Better to just name them with lots of keywords so they pop up when you type anything vaguely related on the address bar.
Wow, I legitimately forgot that bookmarks still exist. I guess I technically use my email for this since I know I can easily search it and it hasn't changed in ~20 years whereas my browsers get re-installed sometimes.
