Hacker News Reader

Definitely! I still keep the bookmarks bar visible on Chrome and Firefox to have quick access to my favorite and most visited pages. All of the links have abbreviated names to fit more on the bar. #1 is Hacker News, of course.

I also still 'star' interesting links and categorize them into folders. Very handy to have Chrome sync the bookmarks across all of my machines.

I started deleting the names entirely and it was life-changing. Text wastes so much space on the bar and you can memorize the favicons very quickly.

I completely agree it's easy to memorize without text. I even lump them into logical groups using the vertical separator favicon from this site: http://separator.mayastudios.com

If you're using Firefox you have native separators for bookmarks.
