I've had the new Firefox 4 Beta for sometime now (I randomly switch off and on between 3 and 4). After looking in the Feedback Study Findings relating to the usage of bookmarks, I thought it was incredible to discover that the maximum number of bookmarks was 41,000. This got me thinking (that's never a good sign). I could say with some fair certainty that the person in question must have pretty much bookmarked every page he or she ran across. This is not my goal, however, it did lead my onto my query.

"What if" I could access a site that indexed every top domain URL out there in such a way that I could download a bookmarks file to import into my browser? It would be necessary to include tags, and it would be recommended that you would be able to decide what content type you would like or not like to have. In this manor, you should be able to decide it's ranking, similar to WOT and Xmarks.

Want to download the entire database? Not a problem. Want to download strictly domains with the tag "Google"? Not a problem. Want bookmarks suited towards or away from children, or a business professional vs. a pro gamer? Pick recommended demographics to get bookmarks suited to your desires/needs.

I don't know if anything along those lines exist, but it would be nice to find out. At the very least it should be a simple (torrent) file that someone has constructed. Thanks!

Nope it doesn't exist and I have a feeling why too and that being there are literally trillions of links on the internet and to create a file like that would take way to long. There are no programs or software that I am aware of that auto generates links that you can be bookmarked and so you would have to do it the old fashion way and that is of manually adding the link to your browser.
