I finally changed my mind about that. Until now, I had tons of
bookmarks. Recently, I found myself using only the ones at the very top
of the list, and I was typing far too many URIs.
I have decided to set up a start page[1] by selecting the sites that I
was visiting often and I have thrown away all my bookmarks.
I also considered adding a DTRT box but my issue with DTRT is that you
have to type too much IMO plus you get an extra redirect for every
query, so I set up DMT[2] (Do Multiple Things) with my favorite
searches. It takes more space than a single box, but I'm happy with it.
