Camino and Safari: Quick keyboard access to the Bookmarks Bar

10. Dec, 2009 4 Comments

Camino_iconYou can quickly open the first nine links on the Bookmark Bars of Camino and Safari by hitting Command+1 through Command+9.

Editor’s note: This is quite useful, especially if you use bookmarklets that do things, like send the current URL to Tweetie for sharing on Twitter or save the page to Evernote.

    I much prefer Firefox's behavior, which maps command+(number) to the tabs. Command-1 goes to the first tab, command-2 to the second, and so on. It's one of the things I'm used to that really messes with me when I have to use Safari. I'll hit command-1 to go to my first tab, and it will instead change the current tab to a different site.

    Different strokes for different folks, I guess. As a Safari user, I hate how this behavior is reversed in Firefox. :)

    On a related note: I wonder how this works on Windows 7 now, as Windows key + a number opens the corresponding app in the new Dock-like taskbar.
