User reviews

Very much handy and minimal in UI as well as the size. I was looking for extension that only has the feature of categorize the links and maybe a simple clock, and voila I got what I wish for. So slick and lightweight. Loved it!

Fantastic extension. Used it for 2 years and counting. Can you use it to link Chrome built-in links like Bookmarks and Flags? I can't figure that out.

Almost perfect but would like to be able to choose our own background color instead of just presets :)
