Categorize Description

Alternative bookmarking system for Firefox Categorize (formerly Bookmarks Plus) is an alternative bookmarking system for the Mozilla Firefox web browser. It includes many novel features that are not available anywhere else. Below is a list of some of the coolest features:CategoriesHappen to know someone who has 7534 bookmarks organized in 3778 folders? Must be some psychotic bookmarking freak with a nasty folder fetish! Glad that you do not know any such person? Actually, now you do. So why that many folders? Well, this is the organization you get when you have the best mechanism for organizing bookmarks invented to date. Categories are super-charged folders with the convenience of tags. Like tags, categories do not need to be created before use, but unlike tags, they have structure. In fact, categories completely subsume both folders and tags. Assigning bookmarks to categories involves searching for the appropriate category and the process is simpler than tagging. As an added bonus, more categories imply less bookmarking effort and that explains the 3778 categories in my bookmarking database.The Groups MenuWith the groups menu you can open any number of your favorite bookmarks with just two clicks. Opening fifty tabs is now as easy as opening just one. Additionally, the groups menu tracks your visits and lets you know at a glance the sites you have been to recently and the ones you may like to revisit.Tab GroupsThere is no point in having the ability to open fifty tabs if you are going to drop dead of information overload. Fortunately, Categorize tab groups are there to help save your life. They make it a cinch to manage even upwards of fifty tabs in a single window.Search-BarThe Firefox search-bar is very good at letting you switch your default search-engine. You may find this useful once every couple of years, but unfortunately, the Firefox search-bar is not so good at everything else. The Categorize search-bar lets you perform searches with a non-default search-engine with just a single click. Repeating a search with a non-default search-engine is also a single click. Even better, the Categorize search-bar opens new tabs whenever it makes sense.Urlbar EnhancementsDid you know what happens when you press in the Firefox urlbar? Firefox appends a .net to whatever you have typed in the urlbar and loads the resulting url. Yuck! a total waste of the most accessible shortcut available to the user. Categorize does something smart. It opens the typed url in a background tab, but clears the urlbar and keeps the focus there. This lets you type multiple urls in quick succession. The shortcut works with anything: urls, keywords, keyword searches and more are all ok. Categorize does not waste the shortcut either. With that shortcut it opens a new tab group for the user. Of course, you can combine the two shortcuts to open a new tab group in the background.Enhanced KeywordsTired of stupid keywords that can either act as a url shortcut or a search shortcut? Categorize keywords are smart. They can do both. Even better, Categorize supports search auto-completion, so repeating the same or a similar search is now a breeze.Group KeywordsEver wanted to search multiple search engines at once? Group keywords can do that for you. Not only do group keywords search multiple sites at once, but they also automatically create new tab groups to minimize tab clutter.Site-specific keywordsEver been at http://www.somesite.abc/blog/1/2/3/4/interesting.html and wanted to get to http://www.somesite.abc or http://www.somesite.abc/blog/ or http://www.somesite.abc/blog/1/ perhaps? Now you only need to type / or // or /// in the urlbar to get to where you want. Also, , \, \ and friends are also there to help you navigate from the opposite end. As a bonus /*, and * help you explore the whole directory tree of whatever website you are at in a separate tab group. Did I mention all Categorize keywords can be used for search and the site-specific keywords are no exception? Just type / some query and voila you have site-specific search results for your query. Requirements: · Mozilla Firefox What's New in This Release: · This release is an extensive update and contains numerous new features and bug fixes. The biggest addition is a new bookmarks toolbar and a searchbar.
