   Working to reorganise my #bookmarks a bit. The bookmark manager in #Firefox is actually very nice, but has one *major* flaw: if you do a search, there is no way to highlight a result and from there go to its parent folder. So there is no way to find out where - in the folder tree - something is stored. Which means you have to work hard to keep that tree well-organised otherwise you'll likely "lose" things that you know are there - but not where (and it's that much harder to gather things together that have become distributed over several trees) --- I've been reorganising for an hour or more, but *still* haven't found where those firewall-related bookmarks are that I need to put all in one place!

     Also, the search brings up only bookmarks, not folders. If I have an "SSH" folder in five places, I'd like to see all of them in the search results for a search on "SSH", and then from each of them be able to go to the containing folder so I know where they are!

     @gryps Well, nice - but that's not the same thing as organizing them in (hierarchical) folders. I don't just use bookmarks as a way to "jump to" a location - I keep notes there in the "description" field (quick evaluation, pros and cons, references to other bookmarks for "see more" etc.). Using it actually as a database. So I need to browse the *bookmarks* (in place) to find that information back!
