I'm working on a tool that helps you find the webpages you've previously come across. This is primarily done by showing large screenshots with each bookmark.

I plan to add a variety of page-browsing tools to help you find that page quickly (from color palettes to cover-flow-esq flow).

If you could do that well, that would be amazing. There was a post years ago from a Mozilla intern on "Lifestream." It's a little bit like your idea, but I've wanted this for so long. Still haven't figured out how to do this, so I shall wait to see how yours turns out instead.

Take a look: http://weizhou.wordpress.com/2008/07/07/prototype/

I personally think some of the ideas there are amazing. I attempted to contact the intern on whether there was any work still being done in this area, but received no response. I really hope someone can create a browser extension, or perhaps that Mozilla might still consider implementing this.

I currently have an obsessively organized library of bookmarks, which still fails me at times.

Edit: Is there any way to organize bookmarks within folders on your website? I see it is not possible in the bookmarklet.


You can tag things, which hopefully serves the same purpose as foldering. I'll add some tools in the future to rename batch tags.


I've been using Folindux for awhile now, and it's super useful for collecting inspiration websites. I did, at one time, have a Tumblr that did this, but this works so much better with the bookmarklet. It still has plenty of room to grow, and I'm excited to see where it goes from here.


Seems like a good idea, though I signed up and installed it and it's not working for me. I can't bookmark anything. I'm using Chrome for mac, version 19.0.1084.52


If you can do this across my different devices and make it searchable like oh last week, that sire about you know err umm.

I really want this
