Bookmarks AI: Gemini Pro-Powered Chrome Extension for Searching and Prompting Your Bookmarked Pages

[Taha Bouhsine]

Hello Everyone,

I created this simple Chrome extension, BookmraksAI,  that gives you the ability to search through the content of bookmarked pages as well as prompt them with your custom prompt using Google's Gemini Pro API, the default Chrome bookmark doesn't give you the ability to search through the content, you will only search using the keywords used in the title or the link which is quite limiting especially if you the keyword you are looking for didn't appear in the title but was inside the content of the page.

I am waiting for the Chrome Extension Store to review the extension and publish it, and I will be open-sourcing the code for it here: https://github.com/skywolfmo/bookmarksai

after I finish writing the MD files.

I tried to attach the extension with this conversation but it was flagged spam, so if you are interested in trying it out before it comes out please reach out to me.

You will need to get an API key for Gemini Pro from here, it is free right now: https://makersuite.google.com/app/apikey

The main features of the Extension are:

- Search through the content of your bookmarked pages and show the list of the pages that contain the keyword

- Give you the ability to select the pages from the list of results

- You can then prompt the selected pages either individually (to summarize each page for example) or combine all the selected pages and ask your prompt (to compare the different selected pages, create related works for your blog/paper)

there are other 8 upcoming features I will try to add this weekend. and would love to hear your feedback on it.

I had to go through a bookmark folder page by page to look for the exact paper I was looking for which would have taken me 4 hours or so, so I decided to spend 12 hours to create this extension, I hope it will save you time as it is saving mine right now. 

I would love to see this extension integrated natively in Chromium (hopefully I will try to contribute to the Chromium code base once I find the time) as it really shows a glimpse of how to integrate the new Google or any other API to improve a simple aspect of the web browsers.

I hope you enjoy it,

Happy New Year,

Best,
