Extension summary

Analyze keywords

Bookmarks Checker is so simple and useful: batch check your bookmarks, review them, and delete the broken bookmarks that are no longer valid. You can also check if there are duplicated bookmarks (bookmarks that point to the same URL). In addition, Bookmarks Checker enriches search results by adding the smart search widget beside the search results.

Here is how it goes : at first your bookmarks are "unchecked" (symbol : empty circle). Click on the empty circle next to CHECK ALL to start scanning your bookmarks (click again if you want to stop) : your bookmarks statuses will change to "success" (symbol : green circle with checkmark) or "timeout" (symbol : black circle with clock) or "error" (symbol : red circle with cross).

MENU CHECK ALL : batch check your (unchecked |timeout | error) bookmarks DELETE ALL : delete your (timeout | error) bookmarks. WARNING : NO UNDO VIEW/HIDE : when working on hundreds of bookmarks or more it is handy to wiew or hide (unchecked | success | timeout | error) only the bookmarks you need to focus on. TIMEOUT : the time each bookmark request has to wait before it is tagged as "timeout". Set this parameter to 1 second and the scan will fly... but many sites won't have enough time to respond.

You can also click on the status icon on a single favorite link instead of batch checking all your favorite links.

NOTES When a bookmark is tagged as "error", there is actually no way to tell what is really going on with the site's server... but it is highly probable that your bookmark's link is dead forever. Bookmarks that get a "timeout" status should be treated with caution, even with a 60 seconds delay... never getting a response does not mean nobody is listening.

Leitet Google-Anfragen über einen Tracker (tatrck.com) um. Absolut nicht vertrauenswürdig! Redirects Google queries via a tracker (tatrck.com). Absolutely not trustworthy!

War ein Top Addon, bis durch ein kürzliches Update viele Google Ergebnisse auf "tatrck.com" umgeleitet werden und anschließend auf die eigentliche Webseite. Tracker installiere ich ungern!
