If you’re a teacher, chances are your browser’s bookmarks bar has become a crowded mix of lesson plans, student tools, favorite education sites, and that one article you keep meaning to read.

Let’s explore how to manage your bookmarks in Google Chrome effectively, and how integrating Symbaloo can make your digital routine even more seamless.

Bookmarking in Chrome is simple: when you find a resource worth saving, click the star icon on the right side of the address bar. You can choose to save the page to your bookmarks bar, a specific folder, or create a new one.
Over time, however, many users notice that their bookmark lists start to grow out of control. Soon you’re scrolling endlessly through folders trying to find that favorite math site or the perfect YouTube tutorial you discovered last semester.
While Chrome’s built-in bookmark manager lets you rearrange and rename links, it doesn’t always provide the visual organization or flexibility educators need when juggling multiple tools and subjects.
Example: Create a webmix with all the math websites for your students
Taking Bookmark Management Further with Symbaloo
This is where Symbaloo steps in. As a visual bookmark manager designed for teachers and students, Symbaloo allows you to collect, organize, and share your favorites all on one easy-to-use homepage. Instead of lists and folders, Symbaloo lets you arrange your bookmarks into colorful tiles within customizable Webmixes—your own digital dashboards.
Example: Math Resources
Imagine a “Math Resources” Webmix with direct links to math resources, games, Google Docs templates, and more.
In another Webmix, you might gather your personal development favorites—podcasts, teacher blogs, or webinars you plan to revisit later.
It’s like having multiple, subject-specific bookmarks bars, each neatly organized and ready to share with your students or colleagues.
