Easier way to use bookmarks in the K3 browser

AthenaAtDelphi · 10-01-2010, 11:04 PM

Instead of using the Bookmarks option of the K3 browser (with only 8 or 11 links per page, and new bookmarks always added at the end of the list), it's probably a better idea to create a webpage (with subpages) on your own website, with as many bookmarks as you like.
And a link to that webpage as the first entry in the Bookmark option of your K3 browser.

Advantages:
- maintaining the bookmarks is much easier (add bookmarks wherever you like; group bookmarks on subpages);
- add extra information (website logos, small pictures, etc.);
- no limitation to the number of bookmarks per webpage (instead of only 8 in landscape mode, or 11 in portrait mode);

An even better idea:
Free online space (say max. 5 MB) for every Kindle owner as an extra service from Amazon, to generate and maintain the bookmarks webpages on the Manage Your Kindle page.

Good idea - I was going to make a bookmarks document and load it on the kindle but your web page idea sounds like less work!

All I'd like to do really is be able to move bookmarks upmor down my list so I hope Amazon add that soon.

That's an interesting idea: a personal LinkPage, made public .
