Diigo's Bookmark Elsewhere | Firefox - 51 views

  Its great that diigo can save bookmarks to your browsers bookmark folder. In the instance of Firefox, however, diigo's way of saving creates a problem. When diigo saves a bookmark back to Firefox, it creates a bookmark for each tag associated to the bookmark. So if I have monster.com with tags career, job, job-board, advice; Then in Firefox it creates monster.com in a folder based on the number tags. So instead of just one monster.com, we have 4. This creates an issue with the places.sqlite file. Over time if a user like me has over 3,000 bookmarks it causes firefox to lag due to loading up the bookmarks, not to mention that it causes the file size also to be larger.
  
  So my sugesstion is when diigo saves bookmarks to Firefox it does it in the same way as if a user saves a bookmark with just those tags. The bookmark itself would be saved in the unsorted bookmarks folder. This way there is only one bookmark.
