    The all new bookmark system is a PITA if you ask me. Half the time it remembers what you used last, half the time it forgets. Then it suggests somewhere - and normally it's wrong, I wanted it where it was last time. And what's with the stupid picture when you click the star to add one? I know what the page looks like - it's right in front of me! Bring back the previous version...

    Chances are some devs got bored. They were all like "well sh*t what now?" And then one guy came along and was like, I dunno. We just gotta do something to justify our paycheck. Then another dev came along and, "hey we can screw sh*t up." "That way, we'll have to fix it too, and I can afford to buy my wife that new fluffy teddy bear."

      Retards, the lot of them.  Let's see how quickly they can build a thick-client MFC app where all the business logic lives in the UI and the db is just a store with zero authentication and validation.  Kids, these days... X| /ravi

        This has got to be the most user-hostile piece of horse manure I've ever come across. Boggles the mind how smart Googlers who're paid oodles of money came up this UI. :| /ravi

              Yeah, the bookmark manager sucks. It's slightly better if you change it to list mode instead of the default tile mode. What I REALLY hate is the little dialog that pops up when you click the star to even add a bookmark. Complete junk! X |

              Contrary to popular belief, nobody owes you anything.

                    "mouse clicks"! no, just gestures. I can think of a couple of gestures right now...

                    - I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

                      Yes its awful alright. Fortunately, there is a way to disable it: Visit chrome://flags and look for Enable Enhanced Bookmarks. -Saurabh

                          It seems, you have to first close all tabs and windows and then disable the flag and restart chrome. -Saurabh

                            It didn't work for me when I did a Chrome restart by myself. But it did when I did it with a "Relaunch Now" button that appears at the bottom of the window when you change any of the flags.

                            You have just been Sharapova'd.
