If you regularly surf the Internet (and this is what most Habr readers do, right?), then it won’t take you long to accumulate a large list of sites that you would like to visit later. The default bookmark manager in the Firefox browser is unlikely to completely suit you. To better organize the accumulation of a collection of bookmarks, synchronize them with other computers, or simply provide easier access to them, many extensions have been written. So let's look at the best ones.

Foxmarks: An extension for people with multiple computers

Do you use multiple computers or operating systems on one? If so, then the Foxmarks extension will help you automatically sync your bookmarks between them. It also allows you to access bookmarks from the Internet. This is a very useful extension if you use public computers to access the network without being able to install anything on them. Foxmarks syncs your bookmarks by storing them on a remote server. With this extension you will forget about backing up bookmarks when formatting or changing computers. There is also an encryption option for security lovers.

Speed ​​Dial: site icons on one page

This extension comes from the Opera browser. It is useful if you have a list of frequently visited sites, want to see their previews, or use the ‘Ctrl+1/2/3/4…’ hotkeys to quickly access them. In the settings, you can choose how many icons will be shown on one page, sort bookmarks into groups (they will be sorted in tabs) and choose to open a bookmark in the same tab, open a new one, or create a new window.


Speed ​​Dial has many options to customize each preview to your preferences. You can determine how often they will be updated. The extension can also save/load settings for use on other computers.

Delicious Bookmarks: integration of Del.icio.us account in Firefox

This extension is not like the standard del.icio.us key that every user has. It gives easy access to del.icio.us bookmarks with integration into Firefox. With its help, you can quickly add existing bookmarks to del.icio.us and categorize them by tags. You can also search for bookmarks in del.icio.us from the browser.

GMarks: Google Bookmarks integration in Firefox

Do you use Google often? GMarks integrates bookmarks from Google Bookmarks directly into Firefox. GMarks makes it easy to migrate from/to Google Bookmarks. The extension can share existing Firefox bookmarks with new ones and does not delete or erase them.

Smart Bookmarks Bar: More free space on your bookmarks bar

Is your bookmarks bar full? Smart Bookmarks Bar this extension helps to better use the free space on the panel, reducing the space occupied by each bookmark. It simply shows only website icons on the panel. If the site does not have an icon, you can add one using the Favicon Picker 2 extension. By default, when you hover the cursor over a bookmark, its name is shown. You can also hide the panel when the mouse cursor is not hovering over it, thereby saving even more space.

Other extensions

The following plugins were not included in the top 5, but are also worthy of mention here.
To Read Later: This extension allows you to temporarily bookmark sites you want to look at later.
Bookmark Duplicate Detector: Just like the name suggests, the extension monitors for duplicate URLs in bookmarks while creating new ones. You just need to be careful and better back up your database.

What other extensions do you use?

I decided to give today’s article a title, since I’m really going to give a very large list of useful extensions with a Russian description for them. All known extensions and add-ons can, of course, be found on the official website, but sometimes people don’t know what to look for or don’t know the name of the plugin they need. In the list you will find browser add-ons for working with tabs and bookmarks, add-ons to improve the security of your browser and many many others... I hope this collection will be useful to you.

IN Lately More and more people are using visual bookmarks as their home page in their browsers. Firstly, it’s convenient; immediately after launching, you get access to your favorite sites. The visual bookmarks panel looks like a board with windows containing thumbnails of their corresponding sites. Clicking on any of them opens access to the specified web resource.

The bookmarks bar can be installed in different browsers, but the topic of this article is visual bookmarks for mozilla firefox, how to install them, how to work with them and how to configure them.

Mozilla Firefox does not have its own built-in visual bookmarks, like Opera, for example, but no one bothers you to install the desired extension and enjoy the functionality and appearance of the panel. There are many plugins available to solve this problem; we will look at the two most popular and well-known of them:

  • Speed ​​Dial
  • Visual bookmarks online (from Yandex)

Speed ​​Dial

In the firefox browser, select from the top menu “Tools” - “Add-ons”

We get to the extensions section, in it we go to the “Extensions” tab

On the next page at the top there is a search box. Enter the name of the plugin into the search window, in our version it is “speed dial” and click on the magnifying glass.

After completing the search, activate the found plugin with the “Enable” button. Here you can go to the plugin settings by clicking the “Settings” button.

Speed ​​dial visual bookmarks look something like this

Visual bookmarks online (from Yandex)

In order to download and install visas. bookmarks for mozilla firefox, go to the special Yandex website and click on the “Download” button at the top. Next, we give permission to run the file and follow the instructions of the installer.

At the next step, do not forget to uncheck three boxes for installing additional Yandex services. Although you can leave it, I don’t recommend it. If you need something you can always install it later and separately.

After restarting firefox, visual bookmarks will already be in your browser.

Bookmarks are configured using the “Settings” link at the top or bottom of the bookmarks panel (depending on the version). Here you can set the number of windows displayed, their appearance and other parameters. In general, everything is simple and does not need explanation. Right-clicking on any visual bookmarks window allows you to insert the website address that will correspond to this window.

In addition, visual bookmarks can be set directly from firefox browser. Choose “Tools” - “Add-ons” in the top line of the browser and enter the name of the plugin into the search window, in our case it is "visual bookmarks" and click on the magnifying glass icon. Install the found extension using the corresponding button opposite the extension. After installation, we work with the extension as described above.

The Mozilla Firefox browser provides users with a convenient mechanism for saving Internet pages they need in their work or simply love.
It’s called “Bookmarks,” and has actually been implemented in various browsers for quite some time.

So there is little that is fundamentally new in the bookmarks function for those who have worked with other browsers. What the developers of “Fire Fox” have done very well is to simplify the work with this tool as much as possible and place all the controls in a convenient and compact menu.

So, you look through the contents of the Internet site and realize that it would be nice to visit here again. No problem! Creating a bookmark is as easy as shelling pears. To do this, you just need to click on the star image on the right side of the address entry line. All! The page is saved in the “Unfiled Bookmarks” category. Now let’s take a look at the bookmarks menu to figure out what these categories are and where else you can “bookmark” pages. The button that opens the menu is located on the very right side of the toolbar. And you can recognize her by the same star.
By clicking on this button we will open the bookmarks menu. The first item says “Show bookmarks bar”. Activating this function will return the appearance of the bookmarks bar familiar to previous versions of Firefox. It will appear below the toolbar. The browser developers decided to remove this panel in the fourth version, but if it’s more convenient for you, then feel free to leave it and use it for your own pleasure. Removing it is as easy as adding it - now in the enlarged “Bookmarks” menu button, you need to uncheck the box next to the “Show bookmarks bar” item.
The next item - “Show all bookmarks” - brings up an expanded bookmark management menu, which we will talk about later.
The function of adding a page to bookmarks is duplicated just below.

But by clicking on the “Subscribe to news feeds” item, you can connect to the RSS feed of this site and receive notifications about new materials. Please note that this tool will only be active on sites that have a built-in RSS feed.
Next comes the “Bookmarks Bar” item, which opens a whole series of sub-items. By the way, it is this that replaces the bookmarks bar, which can be returned to the “face” of the browser. The top sub-item “Most Popular” displays the pages you visit most often. Next are the items “Start Page” and “News Feed”. We go even lower into the bookmarks menu and see commands that open lists of recently added bookmarks and tags. Complete the list of items section reference information about the browser and - attention - the same section in which new bookmarks are located by default - “Unfiled bookmarks”. Let's click on this button.

We are back in an advanced bookmark management tool called “Library”.
Here is a list of bookmarks in our category and information about where they lead. Here you can add tags to them.
In general, the developers recommend not to look for bookmarks in different menus and not to bother yourself with these subtleties, but simply enter the name of the site or some of its features in the “smart” search bar.

But let's imagine a situation where you have completely forgotten all the information about a site you added to your bookmarks, which you now desperately need. You need to look for it in the “Unfiled bookmarks” section. “But this is a long time!”, you will say and you will be right. Let's move this bookmark somewhere closer.
For example, in the “Bookmarks Bar” item. To do this, simply click on the desired bookmark with the left mouse button and drag it to the “Bookmarks Bar” item. Close the Library. The bookmark is now available in this menu item.

But that's not all. Firefox wouldn't be the people's browser if it didn't give you more options to make your job even easier. Let's return to the starting point of our story. We are on some website and want to “remember” this page in our bookmarks. Click on the star image.

But not once, but twice! Miraculously, a small window immediately appears with a menu for adding a bookmark. Let's take a closer look at what we can do here. The top button eloquently suggests refusing to bookmark this page, but we generously ignore this call and look further. In the “Name” field you can enter the desired name of the site.

And just below is the “Folder” field.
And here is the most interesting thing.
Let's start with the fact that, in addition to the default “Unfiled Bookmarks” folder, you can select another location by clicking on the active field. But that's not all. You can create a new folder yourself in which to save the bookmark, and even specify its location. To do this, click on the button with the small arrow to the right of the folder field. Here we click on the desired location of the bookmark - for example, “Bookmarks Menu”, and now click “Create Folder”.

Enter the folder name and click “Finish”. The bookmark has been saved. If desired, you can also enter tags for this bookmark.
Now the bookmark is very easy to find. This way you can organize thematic folders to save bookmarks from different sites.
