First off, thank you!

I've been looking for this functionality for a long time and considered building on my own :) but never got to it.

However, I'd feel it complete the picture if you also searched through bookmarks or had a bookmark only mode. This would give me control over what I'd want to index!

I have bookmarks going back to 2009 in Chrome (and 2004 in Firefox). Sadly, many of the links are now dead. I wish 'bookmarking' had saved copies of these pages that I could read and search now, even if they were text only.

So instead of caching all URLs, you want falcon to only cache items in your bookmarks list? That cold be a cool and easy way to have more privacy control on blacklisting too.

@morris-jason That would suit me.

Feature Request... I often Bookmark alot of interesting and technical articles... Is there any way to have falcon index all my 500 bookmarks so they become searchable without me having to visit each one.

I also clear my history frequently... So having a way to re-index bookmarks would be awesome.

Hey @uptownhr @hickford @morris-jason @hasokeric

We forked the Falcon tool a while back and integrated the import of the existing history and bookmarks.

We have done it by importing it via the chrome.history/bookmarks api.

Best,
