@itsnblackburn Great point, I'm already getting loads of requests of people asking for additional stuff, the kind of thing that would turn this into more of a bookmark manager which isn't really what this is about - to be honest, I need to do a bit more thinking about it's future. Thanks for your feedback though man apprecitce it.
