Firefox favourite bookmarks?
« on: August 29, 2011, 08:51:53 AM »
Are there any Firefox extensions that allow you to 'favourite' bookmarks? i.e. In Outlook 2007 I can flag emails or RSS posts so they appear in my To-Do Bar. Something similar for Firefox would be very useful.

There's the bookmark toolbar and also the most visited button.

Heh heh, I probably didn't make myself clear:

I've got hundreds of bookmarks already, in multiple folders, and there are some I'd like to flag up on a 'to do list' to remind me to go back to them. I could put them in a separate 'to do' folder, but this'd quickly get unwieldy as I accumulate bookmarks at a far higher rate than I actually read through the pages properly!

I suggest you stop bookmarking so much porn  :P

Sounded promising, but not quite what I'm after. Just discovered Firefox's in-built bookmark tags, and while it's a little clunky, it looks like it'll do what I'm after.

I don't use outlook so I'm not sure exactly what you're after. Doesn't sound like what you want but might be helpful, I used to use the morning coffee addon:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/morning-coffee/

which is basically a list of sites you visit daily that you maintain. Click a button and they each open in a new tab. You can set them to open particular urls on set days of the week.
