Tired of clickable bookmarks that clutter up your display, take your hands off the keyboard, and are impossible to find when you need them? With TextLinks, a short text string sends you to your most important URLs without taking your fingers off the keyboard!
To use this extension, click the 'TextLinks' icon in your extensions menu, enter keyword and url combinations. In the URL bar, type "go" + spacebar (or TAB), your keyword of choice, and press enter!
Other extensions charge you for similar functionality, but TextLinks will always be free for as many links as you want to store.
Detailed Setup:
1. Install the TextLinks extension
2. Click the extension icon at the top right of Chrome (i.e., the "puzzle piece"), and pin TextLinks to your extensions pane
3. Click the TextLinks logo, and add your URL pairs (e.g., "goog" and "google.com")
Detailed Usage:
1. Go to the URL bar (Ctrl + L to keep hands on the keyboard)
2. Type "go" followed by either spacebar or TAB to enter the TextLinks omnibox
3. Type the short string you've set up and press enter!
(Optional) Say goodbye to your bookmarks bar:
If you prefer this text linking approach, you can clear up some visual space in your browser by hiding your bookmarks bar. Click on the elipses on the top right > settings > Appearance > Show bookmarks bar.

- (2024-11-07) Buddha R: To give 5 star. Missing to show in the address bar list to choose from.
- (2024-01-04) Wud Tester: Wicked super helpful, shocked that this isn't a provided feature of chrome. Great job!
- (2024-01-02) Josh Wallace: For me not having to scroll into a folder, just to search for another folder then to locate a 3rd folder so I can find the name of a webpage or document I bookmarked is so convenient! I type what I'm looking for and using this tool allows me to quickly and easily navigate to what I'm looking for. This feature saves me a significant amount of time and effort. I can find things 20x faster than I would with traditional bookmark browsing and searching. I can just bookmark so much faster.
- (2024-01-01) Andrew Spaner: Simple. Simple. Simple. But in a very powerful way! I love that I can sub a short word in for any crazy url I typically go to and it can take me there - even to documents - Really fast and easy to use!
