BookMap

Significantly decreases the time it takes to save a bookmark to a desired folder.
What is BookMap?
BookMap is an innovative Chrome extension that revolutionizes the way you save bookmarks. By enabling users to assign hotkeys to specific folders, BookMap allows instant bookmark creation, drastically increasing productivity. Users can easily map out their favorite websites for quicker access. Despite its ability to access tabs, rest assured this extension has no interaction with your history. The maximum number of hotkeys is currently limited to 4 due to Chrome's policies, but further improvements including pop-up notifications are expected.

FAQ

  1. Why does this extension ask to use my history? - History is coupled with tab access in chrome. If you view the code you'll see there's no interaction with your history whatsoever.

  2. Why only 4 hotkeys? - This is currently the max hotkeys allowed on a chrome extension. If there's demand, it's possible BookMap could be recreated as Chrome App to make more mapping available.

  3. What's next? - After some UI improvement, BookMap will be getting pop-up notifications to provide additional feedback upon creating a bookmark.
