Speedy Bookmarks Search Extension

This extension indexes all your bookmark items once and updates its indexing database when a change occurs in your bookmark tree like a new bookmark being added, removed or modified. This database can then be used to find matching terms using the extension's popup window. The search engine of this extension is very powerful. It supports search operators like \"OR\" and \"AND\" which can be used to limit the search results with keywords. Read the FAQs page for more info

Notes:
1. This extension sorts matching results based on their relevance. The number in the last row of the result section displays the matching percentage.
2. The first time indexing may take up to several minutes depending on the total number of bookmark items you have
3. To open a result in a new browser tab use Enter key. To open in a background tab, use Ctrl/Command + Enter key. To open in the current tab use Shift + Enter keys.
4. This extension only indexes the database once and does not re-index since it monitors bookmark changes.
5. This extension uses none-persistent background page to prevent any resource usage when it is not being used.
6. There are many search keywords that can be used with searching operators to better limit results. Make sure to check them in the FAQs page.

Yuhua Deng (ID: 000000e6c722abab) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 03/22/2022 Great, that's all I need and I love it. I have thousands of bookmarks. The native Chrome search function is really slow. This search function is much easier to use than the built-in one. Thanks to the developer!

Vegetarier für Tierschutz (ID: 00000094dc8e3f6f) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 07/11/2021 After installing this exension, my Harddisk was working hard without an end. Then i deinstalled it, and then my Harddisk was quiet again. Is a Virus inside this extension?

Bibek Maharjan (ID: 0000003735eb5e46) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 03/11/2021 Great extension. Wish it also had a feature to search within a specific bookmark folder.

Peter Hillerström (ID: 0000003f858cc718) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 08/27/2020 The search works incredibly fast, probably thanks to WebAssembly and C++ search library called Xapian. It takes a while to index thousand of bookmarks the first time, but the extension does it on the background. I wish the results could be sorted by columns.
