Mozilla bookmark group swapping: a proof of concept
This week's Onion is out, and I've created a bookmark file for Mozilla that will load every page in the new ish in its own tab. If you've got Moz, right-click/control-click the link below and select "Save Link Target As..." Save the file, then select Bookmarks -> Manage Bookmarks... Once the bookmarks window is open, select Tools --> Import... and choose the file. You'll have a new bookmark, called "The Onion Aug 1 2002." Select it and your Moz window will open up with all the pages of the new Onion in it.Why do this? I dunno. I have an idea that there could be an RSS aggregator or similar that outputted Moz tab-bookmark files. Wouldn't it be cool if every morning, you sat down to your browser and had a tab-file that would load up all the day's news stories (say, every link from the previous day's Boing Boing or Wired News or Slashdot) -- click it before you take your shower, and by the time you're done, voila, tabbed newspaper!
