Extension summary

This extension mimics the ability of Firefox and mozilla based browsers to use aliases as a shortcut to call specific bookmarks.

It allows you to set alias/shortcut for your URL or javascript bookmarklets or folders, directly in the bookmark manager. You can then call an alias from chrome's omnibox or from the extension's popup window (keyboard shortcut: "ctrl+."). Simple "http(s)" bookmarks as well as javascript bookmarklets can be called with or without parameters. If it works as a bookmark, it works as an alias.

Since your aliases are stored with your bookmarks, exporting or transfering them also tranfers the aliases.

Starting with version 0.9.6.15, folder alias is available. It can be used to open static pages, or to make a group search on multiple search sites (examples provided).

Version 0.9.8 introduces auto-completion in popup window (see options page to enable).

User reviews

FANTASTIC I was dying for a way to add keyboard shortcuts to bookmarks and especially bookmarklets! Seems truly ridiculous that Chrome doesn't have this functionality.

Great idea. Well implemented. Works flawlessly. Is there a way to stop notifications? Gran idea. Bien diseñada. Funciona sin problemas. Hay forma de evitar las notificaciones?
