> Find saved browser destinations, distinguish bookmarks from SuperCommands Link objects, and improve names when search results are ambiguous.

A bookmark is useful only if you can find it again. When several saved pages are called “Dashboard,” remembering the destination's title may not be enough.

Use the project name, domain, or a distinctive phrase to narrow the search. Then inspect the result type so you know whether you are opening a browser bookmark, a SuperCommands Link object, or another saved item.

## Know which saved resource you are looking for

| Item | Where it belongs | What to expect |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Browser bookmark | Browser bookmark library | A saved destination |
| SuperCommands Link object | SuperCommands workspace | One URL or an ordered collection |
| Session | Saved browser working set | A set intended for later launch |
| Note | Saved text | Context rather than a destination |
| Workspace Collection | Dashboard view | Widgets presenting saved objects |

Finding an item through a shared search surface does not mean it has been converted into another object type. A result's category is useful information.

## Search through the right entry surface

SuperCommands' [Home Screen Search documentation](https://supercommands.com/docs/home-screen-search) lists collections, history, and bookmarks alongside saved objects. Type a recognizable part of the resource name, inspect the matching results, and select the intended bookmark.

If you search from the browser address bar, activate SuperCommands with `c` followed by Space, then enter your query. Read the suggestion before opening it. The [Omnibox guide](https://supercommands.com/docs/omnibox-search) covers this entry point.

The `Alt + S` Webpage Search surface is also useful for saved SuperCommands items and registered commands. Result availability and categories depend on the surface, so do not treat every query as a guaranteed search of page contents across your whole bookmark library.

## When several results look identical

Suppose the result list contains three pages named “Analytics.” Search for the client, report, or domain you remember. Inspect the destination before choosing.

If the title remains ambiguous, improve the stored name where you maintain it. `Client A acquisition report` carries more meaning than `Analytics`. Use the same vocabulary in the project Note and collection name, so you do not have to guess three different names later.

This is usually more effective than adding folders that you will not remember to browse.

## Browser search may already be sufficient

For a simple Chrome bookmark lookup, you can use the browser's native bookmark search. Google's [Chrome tips](https://www.google.com/chrome/tips/) document the `@bookmarks` address-bar route.

Use SuperCommands when the lookup belongs to a larger saved workflow, such as finding a review collection and its next-action Note together. You do not need an extra command system solely to search a handful of bookmarks.

## Promote repeated destinations into a Link collection

If you repeatedly find the same four bookmarks before a meeting, create a Link object from those destinations. Choose **Create → Link**, use bookmarks as a source, and review the selected rows.

Name the collection after the meeting or task. Assign a Text Shortcut only if you launch it frequently; for example, `c review` in SuperCommands search can open an object assigned the shortcut `review`.

See [Link Collections](https://supercommands.com/blogs/link-collection) for the full workflow. This creates a purposeful saved set rather than requiring four separate lookups.

## Keep the limits of search clear

Searching names and saved terms is different from searching the full text of every bookmarked article. If you remember only a sentence inside a page, a bookmark's title may not contain it.

For content-level retrieval and archived copies, compare the relevant capabilities of dedicated libraries in [the bookmark-manager guide](https://supercommands.com/blogs/bookmark-managers-chrome-compared). Choose based on what you need to remember: the destination, the project, or the content inside the page.

Finally, remove obsolete destinations and correct misleading names where they are stored. A faster search surface cannot make a broken link or an ambiguous title informative.
