Hi Alex > Could TW access Chrome to get the bookmarks I save there?
I can think of a few ways to get bookmarks out of Chrome: * A Chrome extension can call a JS API: https://developer.chrome.com/extensions/bookmarks * Server-side code can use the unofficial Google Bookmarks API if the user has chosen to sync their bookmarks to the cloud: https://code.google.com/p/gmarks-android/wiki/BookmarksAPI * A user can manually export all bookmarks as an HTML file I think the most convenient route is likely to be to use a Chrome extension, but there's not much motivation to create a Chrome version of TiddlyFox because Chrome Extensions don't get file system access.
