"To visit" folder
== "To visit" folder Temporary/Time Based Bookmarks ==I rarely use think many of us frequently need to save websites we wish to return but don't want to keep them bookmarked forever. For instance when I comment on blogs I often like to return to reply to the discussion later but if I kept every article I'd commented on in my bookmarks it would rapidly grow unwieldy. An earlier contributor uses bookmarks, except for one purpose. I have keeping a 'to visit' folder where I store list and would like to be reminded about the contents of the things that I should see laterlist when non-empty. I think that this should Similar use cases would be institutionalizedremembering items you are comparing to purchase, funny pages you want to show friends, which would also allow adding of automatical reminders when long articles you open Firefox next timeare reading, remembering conferences or on some custom schedule. For exampleother events that will lose relevance shortly, if 'and remembering stories to visit' is not empty, Firefox would open on its start bookmarks sidebar with this folder openedwrite a blog entry about.
In firefox 2 this sort of use is very cumbersome. With 'add bookmark here' bookmarks can be added efficently enough but every time one wants to remove bookmarks you need to go to the manage bookmark's screen. Some more efficent means of removing temporary bookmarks is needed, perhaps several. The best place to show such 2visit following features all seem good: 1) Expiration times for bookmarks may , when created you can specify a date on which the bookmark will be just in toolbar via extension with number displayed and deleted/become invisible. 2) Folder based expiration times, particular folders could time out bookmarks when they age past a dropdown certain date. 3) Most recently used display with list bookmarks disappearing after they fall below some threshold. 4) The above but at the user's request. 5) Easy option to delete without entering the organize bookmarks page. Of course all of this bookmarksthese really need appropriate sort option.
