User reviews

Concept is great and aims to perform fast. However the results are messed, making it hard to locate the items. Either directly type @bookmarks in the address bar (the built-in chrome feature which is good enough for most scenarios), or try mindecho which is a universal bookmark search extension supporting reading list as well.
