How To Arrange Your Favorites Manager
You gather up tons of bookmarks and save them in your bookmarks or Favorites Manager file. You will gain efficiency by arranging the Favorites Manager folders and files.
This weekend I have been going through my bookmarks and arranging them in to their appropriate category folders. Though it is rather boring it reminds one to revisit several sites that you intended to check out some time.
This all came about because of the loss of one of the tools that I use every day and that is Linkbun.ch. That website allows you to open several tabbed websites at one time by just saving the group in a Linkbun.ch folder.
So I had folders groups for startup, which would be a Google search page, Gmail and the Google reader and the stats analyzer page for all of my websites that I track constantly.
Then I had another Linkbun.ch folder for domaining which included sites for newly expired domain names, and a nice tool pcnames.com that lets you see if domains are available as you type. I also had some of my webhosting companies and NAME.com for the cheapest place to buy domains.
I had another folder for microblogs, such as Twitter (I’m linkmoneydotorg,) and Plurk (where I am richhill.)
Another Linkbun.ch folder for Social Networking sites, such as StumbleUpon, Digg, Technorati, Sphinn, and a couple of others.
Unfortunately Linkbun.ch has been down for a couple of weeks now, and the message they show indicates they are working on the site, but it does not appear as though they will be back any time soon.
I had become accustomed to relying on that service to open my various groups as needed, so decided to go about it a different way. You might find this handy also.
I set up some folders in my Favorites Manager named; 01startup, 01domaining, 03microblogging, and 04social. Then I put the appropriate sites that I want to use in each group.
Now when I open up my browser I just go to the bookmarks and click on one of the folders mentioned, and select “Open all in tabs.”
That’s all you have to do and your three or four favorite sites immediately open up on your desktop and you are in business.
So when you get some free time I would suggest you arrange your Favorites Manager and speed up your productivity.
I wrote about Linkbun.ch in a previous post on “How To Become A Domainer.”





















Great minds think alike, that is exactly what I have started doing;)
@Caroline, there are only a few of us left… \g/
Thanks for the comment.
My favourites list is just an absolute mess – I have hundreds upon hundreds of links just sitting there unsorted and uncategorised, and I don’t know what they’re about because I never go back and look at them
