Internet Tips
Bookmarks: Manage Your Favorite Links
You know you bookmarked a terrific site about composting food scraps. But that was three months ago, and now you can't find it in the unwieldy mess of your Favorites folder (in Internet Explorer; Bookmarks in Netscape).
Both Internet Explorer and Netscape let you organize links by creating folders and using some simple sorting functions. But to get the most from your links, your best option is a bookmark management program.
Compass is easy to use and lets you trade bookmarks between browsers ( www.softgauge.com/compass). The $25 program also lets you search for a link by URL or title, and finds duplicate bookmarks to help streamline your list.
The $25 Powermarks is more versatile, though less intuitive ( www.kaylon.com/download.html). Besides having features like those in Compass, it lets you annotate bookmarks, allows you to search for links using keywords, tells you when a bookmarked page has been updated, and searches for dead links. You can also set up a free NetSync account to make your bookmarks accessible from any Net-connected PC.
Among free programs, the graphics-based Visual Marks manager lets you view bookmarks either as text strings or as thumbnail screen shots ( www.6bytes. com/visualmarks.html).
