Extension summary

Analyze keywords

Have you ever told yourself "I'm saving this for later", bookmarked a website and forgot about it?

Do you have lots of bookmarks that just accumulate and that you don't even know you have?

Random Bookmark opens a random bookmark every time you open a new tab. It is pretty customizable, too.

Also coming with a blocklist feature:

Tired of procrastinating instead of working on your stuff? You keep wasting your time by going from one stupid site to another?

The blocklist redirects blocked sites to a random bookmark instead, so you actually read something interesting while procrastinating.

User reviews

This extension allows me to rediscover previously forgotten bookmarks and is a lot of fun. :)

It doesn't appear to function correctly as an Opera extension. I suspect it has something to do w/ new-tab replacement, as I don't think Opera (or Vivalidi) allow extensions to do that. E.g. i continue to use the Start.me extension as a "new tab" extension, even though it doesn't work on Opera/ Vivaldi because I can simply access it as a bookmark, or set it as my home page. This extension does not seem to provide such an option, though I suspect it would probably function if i knew how to tell it to execute.
