TabCmdr's way

Bookmark from the TabCmdr palette

TabCmdr is a keyboard launcher that lives in your browser. Its Bookmark This Page command saves the page you’re on, and the same search box finds the bookmark again later.

Before you start: add TabCmdr from the Chrome Web Store. It has a 7-day free trial and needs no account.

Step 1: Open the palette on the page

Press ⌘+K on a Mac or Ctrl+K on Windows and Linux on the page you want to save.

Step 2: Type bookmark this

Bookmark This Page shows up under Commands, already highlighted.

Step 3: Press Enter

The palette closes, Page bookmarked shows at the bottom of the page, and the page is saved in Chrome’s Other bookmarks folder, named after the page’s title.

If the same address is already bookmarked, in any folder, you see Already bookmarked instead and nothing new is saved, so you won’t end up with copies.

Find the bookmark again

Open the palette and type :b followed by a word from the page’s title or address. Each bookmark shows the folder it’s in. Press Enter to open it.
