| Mozilla Firefox did it again, staying ahead of Microsoft in the home user browser wars, in particuliar, enhancing the managment of bookmarks. Mozilla really looked outside of the box, as usual, as bookmarks are controlled and organized through its own integrated section of the browser called the "Library". At first glance all seems the same, however unlike the other browsers: Opera, Safari and Internet Explorer that still utilize the filesystem to manage and control bookmarks/favorites. Firefox utilizes the power of JSON(JavaScript Object Notation) and a local integrated database, SQLite. Using a DB and the light yet powerful JSON dataset, this enters undiscovered territories in the web browser world. Some of these new features can be seen and accessed within the Library. |
 |
| Not to go off topic, but Firefox received 8 million downloads in a 24 hour period, with this, it inserted itself into the Guiness Book of World Records for the most downloads in 1 day. However, Firefox is restricted by a protective patent held by Microsoft in utilizing Visual Basic in webpages. This restriction will continue to be a large issue for Firefox as corporations and businesses primarily develop in Microsoft languages. The example that corporations are setting to the general non technical population is that Microsoft products are better. This one hurdle is what "holds back" Firefox as being the most reputable web browser. |
| Enough talk on the only problem Firefox has, lets discuss on why it totally rocks. |
The Library |
To access the library you can do it in one of two ways.
|
Once in the library, you will have options to:
|
| These options make it extremely easy to share and transport your bookmarks from machine to machine. Additionally, the export to HTML, which was a carry over from previous versions, is great if you have a personal website and want to have your bookmarks available across the internet from various machines. For some people that haven't heard of JSON, its more or less the a 'super' dataset that is fast, lightweight and portable. For the non technical people, this evolving technology is super cool. New software and web developments are choosing this over XML as a choice of holding data. This can be seen first hand in many Google Map/Earth AJAX Based website applications. |
You will also have many options to sort each bookmark on:
|
How to add a bookmark |
Adding bookmarks (aka Favorites) is still performed the same easy way as in prior versions. When saving a bookmark you'll be presented to:
|
Here are the three ways to bookmark a site that your currently at:
|
| Tags, mentioned above, is a new option that will allow for better organization as well as to label the content in your own words. If this page was found in a result of a search engine search, a good idea is to use the keywords you searched on as the tags. |
Tag Examples:
|
| As you add new tags, automatically these new tags will be added to window where you can check/select the relevant tag to new bookmarks. This new feature is just one of the many features that the backend DB empowers us to do. Firefox is continuing improve in all areas of web browsing. With the JSON and the backend DB, stay tuned for some rocking plugins that the developer community will provide! |

Oscot, thanks so much for writing this article. I agree that Firefox is a superior web browser. I am not a computer person and dont know all of the nuisances of the browser yet since I just recently downloaded this, but the bookmarks are really user friendly and work better than that of Internet explorer, which I used to use. Looking forward to reading more info-- thanks!
