ずっとFirefoxを利用していて不便は感じなかったが 対応しないサイトが出てきたのでchromeに変える事にした FirefoxではSpeedDial系の拡張を使用していたので chromeでも使いたくいくつか試してみた 『Speed Dial』『Speed Dial 2』『Speed Dial [FVD]』 等を試してみたがどれもまともに使えるものはなかった そんな時これを発見した やっとまともに使えるものに出会えた 〇ブックマークがhtml形式なのが良い (他の拡張はcsvファイルの独自形式でインポートで使えない事が多かった) 〇サムネイルの作成もそこそこ早い (他の拡張はやたら時間がかかり実用に耐えないものが多かった) 〇安定している (他の拡張はバグでまともに動かなくなる事があった) 高機能は求めないがSpeedDialとしての基本さえ しっかりしていればいいという人には特にお勧めである ただchromeウェブストアで『Speed Dial』で検索してもこれは出てこない chromeウェブストアをうろうろ彷徨っていた時に偶然出会えたのであるが この拡張に出会うのが難しいというのが唯一の弱点である

Thank you for this excellent and fast visual bookmark extension. I want to move away from FVD Speed Dial, but I MUST have Groups. Aside from having Folders at the Address Bar and accessing each folder as a group of Speed Dials, is there a better way to create groups?
