Bookolio, a Google Chrome startpage

Nearly a year ago, I discovered on deviantArt the custom browser startpages. The idea to make one myself never striked me before, but when I saw all the cool examples on dA, I figured I would make one too. So I did. The coding was pretty basic and the design minimal, just as I liked it. But after using it for some time, I got bored by constantly having to open up the file, change the code, then reload the page. So I decided to make a web application out of it.

Thus, together with a friend, I started developing an extension for Google Chrome which I'm presenting to you now. Bookolio displays your bookmarks and bookmark folders into blocks where you can quickly access them. It also provides access to 21 (for the moment) search engines.

Right now, the extension doesn't have many functionalities, only the basic ones you would find on a static browser startpage. But development is still in progress, so new functionalities are on their way. So we would like to ask you guys for your feedback which is tremendously important to us : suggestions, ideas, advice, what do you like/dislike about it, what would you change, what search engines should we add ... any info is more than welcome.

So if you are interested, simply get Google Chrome, if you don't already have it, and head over to : Bookolio download page

No need to know any HTML or any ohter web based programming language. Just install it and use it !

Please note :
- The extension is exclusively made for Google Chrome, so you can't use it on other browsers. It is possible that we port it to other browsers in the future if we have enough success.
- Eventhough it isn't required, it is advised to have an organised bookmark bar cause it always looks better
