- - go to said site
- - click the star in The Awesome Bar once, twice
- - fill in your info including a tag or two, don't worry about sorting it
into a folder, the tagging makes that somewhat redundant
- - click the ok button

now to access your sites just type the tag in the address bar where you
used to type your two-letter codes - heck, tag the sites with your two
letter codes.

seems a bit easier to me than migrating to a new browser.  in fact i'm
going to start bookmarking sites again because of how this feature is
implemented.

btw what is the alternative browser to you?  i'm liking epiphany and its
many extensions, opera is pretty great too though.
