Firefox Bookmarks - a cool feature

moldboy
I just learned this from the latest issue of PCMagazine. If I bookmark http://www.trap17.com/forums and in the bookmark properties assign trap17 as the keyword, then instead of typing http://www.trap17.com/forums every time I can simply type trap17, and press enter!

That's pretty handy actually.

I thought that was similar and common as a feature of AutoComplete for Web Addresses?

With that you have to type the www. first - with moldboy's way you just type whatever name you choose instead so you could have abbreviations as well (eg t17 instead of trap17).

You could have a whole folder of just shortcuts for websites. So Instead of typing google.com every time just go, but I guess that defetes the point as google is built in, HA!

That's a very nice tip...
Normally i wouldn't need this since the personal bar of firefox was big enough for my top 15 visited sites, but now it's filled up...
Thanks m8 for sharing this wink.gif
