Show HN: Rewind – Your bookmarks, by date, with thumbnails and instant search

[bouiboui]

Rewind is a Google Chrome extension that displays the bookmarks you saved today, yesterday, last week (or at any date) on one page, with thumbnails and instant search.

It's totally free and it relies on your local bookmarks, you don't have to create an account on a website.

It's ideal if you use your bookmarks as reminders for cool links (articles, blog posts, websites) that you want to read later, but never really do.

If you synchronize your bookmarks with your Google account, you can add a bookmark when you're at work and check it out when you're home, or add a bookmark on your phone and check it out later from your desktop computer.

Also, if you have 100 tabs open, just add them to your bookmarks and you'll check them one by one later.

Neat, also wasn't that a basic feature of web browsers (sometimes including history) something like 10 years ago?

Just curious, how do you make the bookmarks and such locally?

[bouiboui]

I use the Google Chrome API to loop through the user's bookmarks, so you just have to use Chrome's native system to add bookmarks.

Is that what you meant?

[tetrisgm]

Sure! Thanks for your answer

Firefox

You can use the old version on Firefox, which was called "Bookmark Time Machine": https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/bookmark-time...

If you like it, I can port the new version too, I just need to know there's some demand because it requires a few hours of work.
