  • Hi all! I'm labeling and organizing my Firefox Mobile  
    bookmarks using contextual emojis in the bookmarks & bookmarks folder names. This has at least 3 advantages:
    1) easier visual browsing
    2) organizing / grouping by identical emojis labels
    3) searching by emojis

How-to:
1) This web page bookmarks with the text string "Mozilla Connect - Ideas" by default.

Now for everything having to do with "ideas", I introduced the bulb 💡 emoji.
So after I bookmarking this page using *Bookmarks  *Add from the menu, I would then edit this bookmark to look like this:
"💡Mozilla Connect - Ideas"

Similarly, I might add country flag emojis to bookmarks referring to a country. 🇺🇸...
Or the magnifying glass emoji 🔍to all my search engine bookmarks.
Of course, also several emojis are possible with one bookmark or folder. name. And you can put them in front of the name or at its end, just as you like.

Now the best thing about it is: Firefox even allows you to SEARCH for emojis in bookmarks. So when I enter just the bulb 💡 emoji into the search box, Firefox will show me ALL bookmarks labeled with the bulb 💡 emoji, hence all my "idea" bookmarks!
Got the idea? Well, try it out for yourself! 🤞
