The discussion revolves around the organization and usage of bookmarks in web browsers, particularly focusing on the bookmarks toolbar. Participants share their personal bookmark setups, highlighting the number of links and folders they maintain. There is a debate about the effectiveness of having too many bookmarks, as it can lead to scrolling and clutter, which defeats the purpose of quick access. Some users express their preference for using folders to categorize bookmarks, while others mention they rarely use bookmarks at all, relying instead on their memory or browser history. The conversation also touches on the distinction between bookmarks and recent history, clarifying that the original query was about bookmarks displayed on the toolbar. Additionally, there are humorous exchanges regarding the misidentification of the original poster and playful banter about various topics, including a Dante's Inferno test. Overall, the thread emphasizes personal organization strategies and the varying approaches to managing online resources.

I think the op is referring to a feature in firefox, and a few other browsers (not sure if IE has it). It allows you to put bookmarks on a toolbar like so:

And, rather than starting a new thread, I'll post this here:
What level of http://www.4degreez.com/misc/dante-inferno-test.mv" are you going to? :devil::bugeye:
Level 1 - Limbo
Charon ushers you across the river Acheron, and you find yourself upon the brink of grief's abysmal valley. You are in Limbo, a place of sorrow without torment. You encounter a seven-walled castle, and within those walls you find rolling fresh meadows illuminated by the light of reason, whereabout many shades dwell. These are the virtuous pagans, the great philosophers and authors, unbaptised children, and others unfit to enter the kingdom of heaven. You share company with Caesar, Homer, Virgil, Socrates, and Aristotle. There is no punishment here, and the atmosphere is peaceful, yet sad.[/QUOTE

I have been there and done that, "in more than one way", it hurts like hell,
so keep away :biggrin:

Ooh, I never thought of putting folders on the bookmark bar! It never occurred to me that I could. :redface: I can add on the folder with my next most frequently used bookmarks. :biggrin:
