Firefox Bookmark Toolbar Folders

     - Sunday, September 04, 2005

Thought I'd write a quick post about one of my most favorite things about Firefox. Before using Firefox, I'd never really been much interested in keeping my bookmarks organized, but now that's changed. The main reason is the tabbed browsing feature. If you're still using Internet Explorer, you're really missing out. While it's included in the soon to be released version, it's not available yet.

I keep all my bookmarks in folders that are available on the Bookmark's Toolbar Folder. Any bookmark in the Toolbar Folder will appear on the toolbar at the top of the Firefox window. When you create a sub-folder on the Toolbar Folder, you can access all the bookmarks in that folder right from the main window.

Even better, each folder has link called Open in Tabs which will open all the bookmarks in that folder in separate tabs. So, I've got a News folder with a bunch of news sites, and a Blogger folder with all the links that I need open when I'm posting, and a Money folder with all the sites I need when I pay my bills.

Anyway, it's real handy and so I thought I'd let you know.
