== Add/Edit Bookmark in Sidebar – Information Management ==
Bookmarks could become an active workspace when the “Add Bookmark�? form would be placed in the sidebar and when the same form in the sidebar would be used to show all saved tags and descriptions simultaneously with the opened website. The Flat Bookmark Extension is a good example of improved usability within the bookmark manager because it avoids the extra step to open the dialog every time a note needs to be changed. Unfortunately, it is not yet integrated in the sidebar nor associated with the opened website. The flat editing of tags, annotations, citations, notes, etc. in the sidebar every time the website is loaded would make it to an information management because it can recall information and changes are easy to enter. Direct access to the description field and to the tags of a bookmark could be a major step forward and improve the usability of web browsers.
== Keyword Option for Bookmark Folders ==
Bookmarks should be stored in some kind of XML format (e.g. RDF / RSS / Atom / whatever) so that they can be parsed automatically by scripts or other utilities. The existing format is very difficult (if not impossible) to parse, except for Firefox itself.
 
== Exporting Bookmarks ==
 
When we export bookmarks, it would be nice to have a propriety on each category and bookmark that could make them private and so, not exportable. This is important because if we want to share our bookmarks there are always bookmarks that should not be shared.
 
If there was soem automatism that would export public bookmarks to a server that also would be very interesting.
