Sure, it’s convenient from a workflow perspective, but stateless nature of browsers means I’ve gotta click RELOAD in order to see if new feeds and I’m fond of news readers taking the time to do that for me. I’m still evaluating NewsFire, but I’m also still wondering out loud if building RSS straight into the browser is the right move. Of course, why do I need de. when I’ve got my favorite RSS reader? RSS was supposed to be the answer to my bookmark angst, but after a year and a half of steady RSS reader usage, I’m still jumping between different readers wondering when something will actually stick to my desktop. ’s decidely geeky community finds some of the hottest pipin’est content on the web. The service also reports and aggregates all new user additions and reports them via the front page as well as a popular page. It’s brain dead interface is so simple that you immediate understand that it’s trivial to create, edit tag hierarchies as well as add new entries to that hierarchy. After many months of casual usage, I’ve begun to actively use ’s as a means of a organizing bookmarks outside of my browser. In this round of bookmark triage, has finally made it to the bookmark bar. I tidy these up by reorganizing and prioritizing these bookmarks from left to right where left means “more important” or “often clicked”. Yet, I still have my fifteen or so standard bookmarks/tab groups that allow me to quickly grok forty or so websites. They lack any sort of time-based or change information and they don’t scale even with all that help from tabbed browsing. I just won’t shut up about disappointed I am with the usefulness of bookmarks. This time around, I began with a complete rebuild of my bookmarks. I think, “Shit, I better get ready.” I start cleaning.

The first wiff of crunch time has the same affect on me as the first smell of spring. Call them integration bugs… call them unplanned consequences… but these are the bugs that will have you working the weekend… these are the bugs of the crunch. Problem is, these side-effect bugs are the unplanned work that will take the most time between now and the end. These are the side-effect bugs introduced by landing these Cool New features… no one is actually looking at these bugs because their focus is squarely on the Cool and the New. Meanwhile, there is a steady flow of bugs trickling in and no one is looking at them. QA is pulling their hair out trying to get these working features actually working. This caused the bookmarks to refresh if I’m recalling correctly.You can smell when crunch time is coming.Įngineering is saying the features are done. I’m not certain, but I think I remember changing the bookmarks pref to another browser, closing the preferences, reopening the prefs and selecting the original browser again (in your case OmniWeb) and closing the preferences again.

OMNIWEB BOOKMARKS UPDATE
So, anyone, any idea what isn’t working for me? why don’t my OmniWeb bookmarks update in DA? Thank you for explaining that File:Import Bookmarks is not what I’m looking for since the bookmarks weren’t updating automatically, I started looking around for some way to help them along… Ya gotta admit that to a newbie, File:Import:OmniWeb Bookmarks sure looked like a reasonable candidate… What do I need to kick in order to get the bookmarks to update in DA?

I still have only the original OmniWeb set of bookmarks. In DA, I have OmniWeb set in Preferences:Bookmarks If you look at the second paragraph in my original post, you’ll see: If you are looking to add the OmniWeb bookmarks to the menu bar and the drawer, there is an tab in the preferences to set that option. It will be grayed out unless you are editing a search set. The “File>Import Bookmarks” command is for creating custom search sets.
