Alfred for your Chrome

I got fed up wasting my time trying to navigate my way through bunch of bookmarks folder to arrange them. So if you are: - Obsessed with organization - Have a couple hundreds (or thousands) of folders in your bookmarks - You like to keep things tidy and every page has to be in its "perfect" place - You like easy and fast access to your bookmarks then you booklight is for you. Booklight is a clean Chrome Extension to ease the way of adding a bookmark. To Launch press (ctrl/Control + b) and thats it Features - Filter bookmarks based on manual entry - Show the path of the current selected folder - Navigate easily through the folders tree using keyboard [if the folder is highlighted in blue this means that it contains sub-folders as well. The right arrow (->) keyboard key will go inside that folder. You can go back one step to

the back using the left keyboard arrow (<-)] - Bookmark directly when you find your target - The ability to switch to urls search [NEW] - Launching urls in current or new tab [NEW] - Fuzzy search enabled for filtering on both folders and urls [NEW] - Clean current URL before bookmarking (sometimes the url is polluted with query strings e.g ?source= ... for various tracking information). To clean the url from those, hit ctrl+alt+x and this will solve this issue. https://github.com/ahmadassaf/booklight
