Markster keeps your internet bookmarks in a central store. People use Markster because either:

• The internal bookmarks facilities (Bookmarks Bar, Bookmarks Menu, Favorites Bar, etc.) in their web browser(s) do not meet their feature expectations.
• They use more than one web browser, and prefer to keep all their bookmarks in a separate app, independent of the web browsers, instead of syncing the browsers' internal bookmarks facilities together.

When Markster users want to visit a bookmark they have previously stored, or add a new bookmark, instead of reaching for the Bookmarks Bar or Bookmarks Menu in the browser, they bring up Markster's Floating Menu. Markster provides three ways to do that:

• Global Keyboard Shortcut, for example Cmd-Shift-D.
• Dock Menu
• Status Menulet (right side of Menu Bar)

The Keyboard Shortcut and/or Status Menulet are enable/disabled in Markster's Preferences.

Markster is a member of our BookMacster Family of bookmarks management utilities, which also includes Smarky, Synkmark, and BookMacster. Smarky, Synkmark, and Markster are each tailored to a specific-use case.

• Worked around a bug in OS X 10.10 (or maybe Safari 8.x) which caused some web pages to fail to open if user made a multiple selection of more than a few bookmarks and commanded a visit. (A delay of 0.4 seconds was added between page visits.)
• Fixed a bug which caused the value of the hidden last_modified (date) attribute of items exported to Chrome, Canary or Chromium to be either not exported, or exported with the value of the add_date attribute instead. This might have been causing unnecessary churn of Chrome, Canary or Chromium bookmarks in some cases.
• When exporting to Firefox, in case the Firefox bookmarks file is absent, the skeleton created has been updated to mimic a minor change in the current skeleton created by Firefox, in case this ever matters.
