It's like having your books open, with a mark in the book for the page. A book mark, if you will

Maybe that's good enough for 1996, but that doesn't do it for me.

I want all those tabs, and all their content, in ram, and disable auto-discard. If the memory overflows it should write it to my pcie5 m.2 ssd not discard.

And that's just a stop-gap measure, because I want this data in my GPU's VRAM part of a locally running open source text generative AI's context, so I can ask it questions about it.

I want to tell it, "take all my open tabs that relate to "HF radio" put them in their own window, open a new ownnotes and write an essay about the current status of my DIY amplifier project and then create a new check list of the design elements I still need to create"

So, bookmarks, with the broken search that won't let you search just one folder, no categorization, no visual preview, it doesn't even save the content and just assumes the content will still be available at a later date, it's too cloudbrained.

I think this is totally reasonable, and a very forward thinking imagining of what the future of the internet could be like. I just thought that the analogy you made in the previous comment was a good one to poke fun at.

I like the idea of being able to run elasticsearch/whatever on a local copy of the full text of all of your bookmarks.
