Bit by bit I'm starting to use 2.1's new Bookmark features - as
expected, Tabs are handy.
However, I have yet to figure out Tags - what are they for and how do
people use them? Is there a description somewhere?
Let's say you have a number of bookmarks in different folders like this:
Mozilla SeaMonkey
Mozilla Firefox
Mozilla Thunderbird
Mozilla Downloads
Mozilla Extensions
You could assign the tag "Mozilla" to all those bookmarks.
Let's say you a folder HTML& CSS in which there are a number of
bookmarks to articles on Mozilla products. Add the Mozilla tag to them.
Now when you open the bookmarks manager you can enter Mozilla in the
search box and the list panel will be filtered to those bookmarks.
Further, you can save the search and it will appear in the left panel
where you can just click it instead of entering the tag(s) in the search
box.
Probably other things to do but that's what I know.
Thank you - you caused me to think of a couple cases where it could
come in handy. I'll hafta try one!
i no longer attempt to sort my bookmarks into folders but tag them,
dining, restaurants, parks, museums, politics,
then do a search instead of scrolling thru nested folders as i used to
do...
a seach of tags with "photo" brings up hundreds of bookmarks, add
"virginia" to the search will winnow it down... add "danville" to narrow
it some more...
