BookmarkPreviews: Cover Flow for Firefox bookmarks
The only problem is that we can't imagine a circumstance where it would be faster to scroll through your bookmarks this way than to just click on the one you're looking for. Plus most folks we know use online bookmarking services like del.icio.us to store their bookmarks anyway.

I don't know if this is a labor of love or merely the brainchild of four very gifted games designers, but Level Up is a really weird mash-up of gaming elements that you have probably never seen in a Flash game before.
Let's start with the premise itself: Groundhog Day meets Memento. The game experience revolves around 'days': you explore the world and the clock slowly ticks towards the evening. You bounce around picking up gems and talking to the denizens of 'Level Upland'. Eventually you feel tired and head back to ...

I use online social bookmarking sites too, but I can totally see this being useful if it could take advantage of integration with Firefox and del.icio.us via that add-on. Glancing at an image of some obscure blog bookmark or another site one is unfamiliar with makes it much easier to identify a site later on than picking its possibly-uninformative headline out of a flat list of 'marks.

I have about 1200 bookmarks in Firefox so I don't see this being useful at all. It's OK when you have just a few bookmarks, but for a big-scale bookmarking experience I recommend using Google Bookmarks or del.icio.us so you know that your data is relatively safe and doesn't depent on the stability of Firefox or IE for that matter.

I think that Google Web Bookmarks service is extraordinarily useful for many reasons, but to recognize the bookmarks could arise some frustrations. For this reason, I’ve developed an Add-On for IE called Quick History for Google. Its goal is providing a visual help to recognize the bookmarks easier. This Add-On creates and inserts a thumbnail of the target page aside of bookmark.
It has other features. Please, check it.
