Yeap, it is true that Bookmark help us to have multiple things at once: Saving our time because whenever we need, what we need already bookmarked, so we simply have to scroll the drop-down lost in bookmark folders to find them. Maximizing the probability to find sources/ documents we need. Sometimes, we can search what we need if we use relevant keywords, sometimes we can do it because our memory on what we read months or years ago is vague, so we will hardly to find them with r]wrong keywords.

Well this is very helpful especially to those people here that are so active and making discussion and having difficulty in finding those topics that they are discussing. I will probably use this in the future in my computer because now I am currently using a phone.

Appreciate your time to make this guide, but I believe there is no need to make two separate threads for this. You can edit this thread to something like "Using bookmark tool in your browser" etc. And then create separate sections for Chrome, Safari, Firefox, etc. It would make it easier for people to search and save their time from scrolling all the way down.

Nice guide btw, though I'm sure bookmark is not entirely new, maybe some people can't do it.
Appreciated your proposal, I locked the topic for Firefox browser, and already changed the title of the topic.
I don't use Safari, so anyone whom familiar with the browser as well as its bookmark tool, please feel free to leave guide steps of Safari browser here, I will add it into the OP.

I made it yesterday, but I am not familiar with Firefox because I usually use Chrome, or Tor browsers. However, I will edit the topic later today when I have time. If you have anything to contribute, please feel free to leave it there

For people thinking that Chrome is the only one with bookmark organization in their browser you should be relieve because for Firefox users your browser has a similar feature even Macbook users have it om their Safari. This only shows that Bookmarking isn't new and it has been used a lot for diffent purposes related to remembering certain pages/articles. You should know the importance of Bookmarking since a lot of important guides and topics in the forum tends to get lost in the pages when the time passes by on no one is posting, even searching the particular topic in Google won't help most of the time if you don't know what to start searching with.

Slava Ukraini!
Having bookmarks sorted into different folders is a must do thing. I'm doing that for several years already. Without having folders for different things it will be total mess full of links in random oder. After creating folders, you will be able to find every link that you need easily and fast. What I like most about keeping bookmarks in my browser is that they are synched between all my devices. So I easily can access link from my phone which was bookmarked using PC.

Welcome to my topic!

In the guide, today I will give you some tips to mark topics or posts in the forum for later reference.
The idea come to me today, when I saw a post published by LoyceV (here). Personally, before today, I usually mark topics or posts that I consider as helpful in Microsoft Excell Spreadsheet, but the kind of bookmark is available with browsers, like Chrome, Firefox, Tor, Brave, as the guide will present, is cool.

Now, let's get started!

To bookmark bitcointalk topics, posts or whatsoever helpful things you find on Internet space, and make them orderly, conveniently for later use, and reference; you should create Bookmark's folders. Inside each bookmark's folder, you will store relevant things for your interests.

There are some basic steps despite of whichever browser you use:
  • Creating folder (folders)
  • Choosing good topics or posts
  • Saving them in your bookmark folder (folders)
Remember that you should manage your bookmark with different folders of each kinds of documents. When you want to make a reference, such management style will help you save a lot of time to scan all bookmarked topics/ posts (if you store them in only one folder).

In the guide, I will present steps to bookmark with several most current popular browsers:
  • Google Chrome
  • Mozilla Firefox
  • Tor
  • Brave


I. Google Chrome

1. Creating Bookmark Folder
Clicking on the Customize and Control Google Chrome button at the top right corner of your Chrome browser, then choosing 'Bookmarks > Bookmark manager'.
Please see the attached image.


2. Creating new Book Mark Folder, and name it
Next, you will be directed to new page, you should do following steps to create a new bookmark folder, and give a new folder a name.

For example: I created a folder, that named as 'Bitcointalk topics/ posts'

Then, after giving a name to your bookmark folder, you will get something like this one


3. Bookmarking your interest topics/ posts and allocating them into relevant folder
For example:
I would like to bookmark the topic, Instructions on how to use BBCode
Steps to do:
- Visiting the topic, then click on the button at the top right corner of Chrome browser, 'Bookmark > Bookmark this page'

You can choose folder in which you will store the topic, I choose the folder 'Bitcointalk topics/ posts'.
If you add more posts or topics in the same folder, you will see something like this


4. You should create several folders to classify topics/ posts, and should not store them all in only one folder


II. Firefox
Steps:

1. Choosing topics/ posts, and creating Bookmark Folder
In order to create bookmark folder in Firefox, you should follow belows steps, in order


For example, I type 'Bitcointalk' as the folder's name



2. Checking results of bookmark and edit further
Using this step if you want to add more details on your posts/ topics bookmarked. Please type Ctrl+Shift+B to visit the following page

You can add more details for each post, topic you bookmarked, such as tag, key words.
Moreover, in case the original link of topic changed, due to topic removed by author or mods, you can edit its link in the Location place (see the image then you will get what I mention).


III. Brave
Steps:

1. Choosing topics/ posts you want to bookmark
Bookmark > Bookmark this page (or press Ctrl+D)

It will automatically lead you to this page, please click on choose another folder to create a new folder to save the topic

Next, click on a button 'New Folder' at the left corner in the bottom

Typing folder name, then click on the 'Save' button.


2. Checking your bookmarked topics/ posts
Whenever you want to find out your bookmarked topics/ posts, please click on Bookmarks, then you will see something like the image attached



IV. Tor
Similar steps as of above browsers, so I simply left images here as ordinal steps.








I hope the very basic topic is helpful for bitcointalkers whom have not known those tips to use bookmark tools on some browsers.
