Have a comfortable use Firefox browser and “Visual bookmarks” from Yandex.

Today we will talk about visual bookmarks for browsers. I will tell you what they are, what they are for, how to install them in your browser, and why such bookmarks are better than regular text bookmarks.

Described below, step by step and in pictures, visual bookmarks work in the most popular Internet browsers today - Google Chrome and Mozilla. Naturally, all other browsers using the same engines (Blink - new Opera, Yandex.Browser, SRWare Iron... and Gecko - Pale Moon, CometBird, SeaMonkey...) also wonderfully and fully support this very necessary, high-quality addition.

Today I will also teach you how to save (and restore) your visual bookmarks, for example, in case of a sudden death of the operating system, as well as synchronize them between different browsers. Yes, you understood everything correctly - you can transfer (copy) these bookmarks from Google Chrome to Mozilla. We made a bookmark in one browser and it appeared in the second - very convenient and practical, I tell you.

What are visual bookmarks

Every browser has a bookmark feature. If you liked a site, you bookmarked it and you can return to it in a week or a year. Comfortable. But over time, dozens and even hundreds of these bookmarks accumulate - how not to get confused in them, how to remember what kind of site you saved a month ago?

Favicons (site icons) don’t help the situation much, as you can see, and these are only 11 bookmarks that I just made on purpose (since I don’t use this method of saving sites I like at all).

Browser manufacturers quickly came up with bookmark bars (usually located below the address bar). Not best way out out of position, it seems to me. You already know how I feel about different toolbars and panels, which steal workspace in browsers. And this did not make ordinary text bookmarks any more informative.

And here they come on stage visual bookmarks! These are not just bookmarks, but small images of the sites that you liked, their pictures...


You can also imagine them as windows on the Internet.

This is how they look in Mozilla Firefox 23.

Why are visual bookmarks better than regular text bookmarks?

With visual bookmarks, there is no need to look for hundreds of lines of small text for the page title - you see this page right away! Before your brain even has time to turn on, you have already found the desired bookmark and clicked on the picture to go to the site.

Visual bookmarks can be easily sorted into groups (tabs) - for example, “Movies”, “Cooking”, “Auto”, “Mom’s”, “Dad’s”...

You can also update, change, delete, add, move from group to group or higher and lower in the browser window... in short, sort and mock them as you please.

I think you get the point - such bookmarks are more informative, more convenient, more practical, more attractive... the usual and boring bookmarks built into the browser. They are simple, clearer!

What are visual bookmarks?

Visual bookmarks first appeared in the Opera browser (2007) and they were called Speed ​​Dial. Users liked this concept of saving popular pages so much that very soon all other browsers (except Internet Explorer, of course) acquired many add-ons and extensions that implement a similar function.

I have already described such additions in detail to you in the articles “ 6 Must-Have Mozilla Firefox Add-ons " And " Top extensions for Google Chrome » .

In addition to add-ons and extensions to browsers, entire visual bookmarking services have appeared on the Internet. For example, top-page and onlinezakladki. But, firstly, the method of distributing the first service is very reminiscent of forced imposition (yeah, remember Yandex.Bar?).

This is what they write about him on the Internet - “What kind of crap is this - top-page...”, “How to remove the sinister top-page from the home page...”, “[email protected]: help me how to remove the top-page...”, "How to remove top-page in Windows...". These are excerpts from the first page of search engine results for the query “top-page”!

The “prevalence” of this service is easily explained - money is paid for its advertising and positive reviews about it. They also contacted me and offered to describe it for a fee. Refused - reputation is more important than any money!

And secondly, all these services are very friendly with Yandex. All have a permanently built-in search bar on half the screen from this search engine! By the way, I would like to take this opportunity to remind you that this is my attitude towards this company .

So, I'm not greedy - here at this link You will be taken to the visual bookmarks page from Yandex for Google Chrome. But! The number of settings (or rather the lack thereof) is simply amazing. You won’t be able to remove the search bar from half the screen, and a more or less decent view of the bookmarks is obtained only when the number of windows is 7 by 3 = 21. Only 21 bookmarks! No groups or tabs! You can, of course, set the maximum available number of bookmarks (48), but you won’t be able to view anything in them.

And here it is Yandex visual bookmarks for Mozilla . Here things are a little better - you can even remove the search bar (monstrous and frightening generosity from Yandex)! A little more variety of backgrounds... but only 25 windows for bookmarks! Of course, without groups and tabs!

So as not to deprive you of the opportunity to choose I provide a link to the review article about similar bookmarking services. Read, choose, swear, spit, delete and read on.

From all of the above, I think you understand that this is not our choice! What is ours like?

FVD Speed ​​Dial - the best visual bookmarks for the most popular browsers

Here's a great video description of this extension for Google Chrome...

You can download this extension via direct official link - it will be installed immediately in your Google Chrome.

As you can see from the video, this extension has a lot of settings, you can very easily customize it for yourself...

In the “View” setting, you can give your visual bookmarks a 3D effect.

You can customize the size and color of the fonts, set your own background color, or even insert any photo instead of the background ( here is a whole gallery of themes for FVD Speed ​​Dial), change the number of columns and the size of the windows. You can also bookmark the password!…

You can even make an additional widget panel, but I didn’t see the need for it ( There are few widgets and they are all “boring”) and disabled this feature.

On the left there is a panel with quick access to the services of the “good corporation” - I also disabled it in the settings, which can be found in the drop-down panel on the right and at the top...

...it can be hidden...

A window like this will appear in your bookmarks...

Click on it and take a picture of the site (screenshot) using your camera...

You can carry a camera by the green cross.

You can adjust your bookmarks at any time...

In the same window you can create new groups of bookmarks.

FVD Speed ​​Dials for Mozilla Firefox absolutely the same in settings and use - here is the link to this add-on .

Now the most necessary and important thing...

How to save and sync visual bookmarks between browsers

In order for the FVD Speed ​​Dials visual bookmarks to be the same in all your browsers, you need to install the extension EverSync for Google Chrome and addition EverSync for Mozilla Firefox .

Both of these reviewers are good in their own way and each of them has both pros and cons. One of the disadvantages of Chrome would be the lack of virtual bookmarks. Or rather, the developer took care of them, but you won’t be able to save more than 8 bookmarks. As you might have guessed, I'm talking specifically about the visual bookmarks that you see when you open the browser, and not at all about those that are saved and hidden in the bookmarks bar. In this regard, Mozilla is much more convenient - nine bookmarks are saved here, and they have a normal appearance, and not pictures cut down in size. But don’t worry, because each of you can install an extension with additional bookmarks in the Chrome Internet browser. I’ll tell you where to get them and how to install them right now.

Installing virtual bookmarks

So, all add-ons for Google Chrome are installed through the browser itself. Speech in in this case is about extensions. Before continuing, I would like to remind you that you should never download files (including extensions) from suspicious sites, as you may download some malicious file. All extensions can be downloaded from the official Chrome web store. To get into it, you need to do the following:

Open the browser, in the upper right corner click on the “Settings” button (three bars) - “Tools” - “Extensions”.

You will see a list of already installed extensions. IN at the moment they shouldn't interest you. At the bottom of the screen, click on the "More Extensions" link, which will take you to the Chrome Web Store.

On the right side of the site there is a search bar in which you need to enter two words “Visual bookmarks” (without quotes) and press Enter on the keyboard.

Number one on the list is bookmarks from Yandex. They are the most popular and convenient. To install the extension, click on the “Free” button, then click “Add”. In a few seconds the add-on will be installed.

Visual bookmarks from Yandex

Actually, these are the most popular and convenient bookmarks that exist today in RuNet. Why? Yes, if only because you can add up to 24 bookmarks to the panel at the same time. This is very easy to do - move the cursor over any of the free windows and click on it. The system will prompt you to add an address yourself or one that is in the list of your visited sites. By the way, 24 bookmarks are the default, but up to 48 of them are supported!

Through "Settings" you can change the background image. Unfortunately, there are not many images, but you can add your own pictures. To do this, find it in “Settings” and click on the “Add” button under the available images.

Among other features, it is worth noting the search bar, thanks to which you can search for everything you need without going to the search engine itself.

Now some rumors. As you know, large companies develop such extensions for a reason, since their development costs enormous amounts of money. With the help of the same bookmarks, Yandex is trying to expand its audience through the search bar. There is nothing criminal about this; similar schemes have been noticed in other search engines. Collecting information about the user and his computer is a completely different matter. And although these are just rumors, there is no doubt about the information, because the data is used primarily for statistics, as well as for showing relevant ads to the user. In other words, by installing this extension, you can be calm about your bank accounts or, for example, intimate photographs stored on your computer, but the system will still collect certain information about you, including possible age, gender, etc. Why did I write this? So that you, dear readers, are aware. And then, many programs that are used on the computer of the average PC user have been observed collecting data.

Speed ​​Dial Bookmarks

Actually, I would like to tell you about bookmarks from , but for some reason I couldn’t find them in the extension store. I don’t know why they disappeared from there, so I’ll look at the quick access panel to sites from Speed ​​Dial.

Installing this extension is no different from the previous one, except that while in the store in the search bar you need to enter the words “Speed ​​Dial” (without quotes) and install the add-on in Google Chrome.

What's so great about this extension? In my opinion, its most important feature is the ability to add 81 bookmarks! Moreover, on the screen they are located so conveniently that they do not interfere or irritate at all. Through the settings, you can increase or decrease the number of bookmarks, change the color scheme of the page, enable or disable bookmark updating, etc. In my opinion, a very interesting addition.

Now about the search bar, which is also here. In this case, the search will be carried out in the Google search engine. It is unknown whether the extension collects statistics about the user.

How to remove an extension from Google Chrome?

If you want to get rid of intrusive add-ons, then this will not be difficult at all. You need to go to the “Extensions” section and select one of them. Let's say it will be Speed ​​Dial.

If you uncheck the box next to “Enabled,” the extension will be disabled. If you click on the trash can icon, it will be permanently deleted.

Bookmarks on an Internet page play the same role as in a paper book. There are situations when you find interesting, useful information, but at the moment there is no way to read or study it. There are notes for this, so that you can quickly find the page you need without wasting time searching. Find out how to create, save, export them for the Yandex browser. Armed detailed instructions, even a novice “computer genius” will cope with the task. All you have to do is choose the appropriate option for saving pages in the browser.
