Bookmark Monitor

#Bookmark Monitor

##Roadmap

• I want to know when my bookmarks are no longer correct. For example:
• The page no longer exists (404) - offer to delete.
• The page has been redirected (301/302) - offer to modify with the new url.
• The page is temporarily unavailable (500) - offer to monitor until it becomes available again.
• The page/domain has been flagged as one that contains malware - warn with the option of deleting.
• The page title has changes - offer to change the bookmark name.
• I want to remove duplicate bookmarks. Show me where they are and allow me to choose which one to delete.
• Tags! I want to be able to tag a bookmark in the same way that Delicious does. Tags should be easy to create, modify, remove, group etc.
• I want to be able share my bookmarks, a folder of them, a tag, or maybe a mix.
• I want to be able to access them anywhere in the world with a simple url like:
  • http://pin.me/123456
  • http://pin.me/danbo/awesome-sock-designs

bookmark-monitor's Issues

When to run checks on bookmarks?

It's only been 5 months, but I'm sitting here in the library with my laptop and decided to play around with Google Chrome API...

How would you imagine the bookmarks get checked? I could think of a few ways:

• Bookmarks are checked on start-up by browser
• Bookmarks are checked periodically by browser
• Bookmarks are checked when the user goes to them in the browser

The third option might be best as it wouldn't require any extra web requests. It could be done using https://developer.chrome.com/extensions/webRequest but would it be iffy to have to hook on all requests? Then run something to update the bookmark based on the HTTP response?

Food for thought!
