Do You Still Use Bookmarks? (Open Thread)

How often do you still use bookmarks? 
Generally speaking, I find there are two types of browsing people.  You have those who still bookmark everything they find interesting, and then those who only bookmark what they need, and Google everything else.  A lot of the time, typing something into the search box might be a faster way to launch a web page, rather than searching through a bucket-full of saved links.
Take a stand, and leave you thoughts in [...]

Quicker Access to Your Unsorted Bookmarks

To tell you the truth, I have not used the Unsorted Bookmarks feature in Firefox 3 that much at all.  Why?  Well, it is a ‘bit of a pain to get to.  You have to open your bookmark manager, open up all bookmarks in the tree then go down to unsorted bookmarks.  Want an easier way to access your unsorted bookmarks?
Right-click on your bookmarks toolbar, and select “New Bookmark”.

The name can be anything.  To keep things simple, for now [...]
