Product Description:

Bookdog is the premier Shepherd and Guardian of bookmarks for your Macintosh. After you install Bookdog, you spend a few minutes adjusting how you want your bookmarks sorted, click 'Sort' and within seconds your bookmarks are all in order! Click 'Analyze' to find duplicates and then fix them. Open the Preferences, activate Bookwatchdog, and your bookmarks be re-sorted after you make changes. Automatically. Do you seem to have alot of bookmarks that don't work anymore? Tell Bookdog to Verify. He'll go to all your websites, fetch their data, present a report, give you some options on how he can automatically fix bookmarks that have been "redirected", and finally present a handy tool which allows you to quickly review and fix the remainder. Using Camino, Firefox, del.icio.us, Opera, Shiira 2.x, Google Bookmarks and/or OmniWeb in addition to Safari? Bookdog knows how to handle del.icio.us tags. When you tell him to Migrate your bookmarks between browsers, he finds the right folder and avoids creating duplicates. You can migrate unilaterally (one-way) or bilaterally, "synchronizing" all missing bookmarks between browsers. And you can do so from an AppleScript or schedule Migrations using Apple's Automator.

Atta boy! Finally, you see the intelligence you knew your Mac was capable of!

What's new in this version:

SUMMARY. This update fixes a bug found in last week's beta test, and some issues with Opera and 1Password that have surfaced recently.
  • Fixed a bug which caused Bookdog 5.0.0 to hang on "Processing..." when opening Opera bookmarks, if user had previously used Bookdog on Opera bookmarks and set some Bookdog-only properties such as False Alarm, Allowed Duplicate, etc.
  • Now properly decodes the new set of default bookmarks that ships with Opera version 9.24, ignoring the extra tab characters delimiting between the last few bookmarks. User no longer has to run Opera and set a bookmark in order to "clean" the default bookmarks.
  • Now ignores an incomplete URIDictionary in Safari bookmarks, such as seems to be written by 1Password for iPhone, so that this no longer results in a Fetchback self-test error.
  • Since the formatting inconsistencies in recent default bookmarks shipped with Opera have been too unpredictable, Bookdog no longer performs the Fetchback self-test when it loads Opera bookmarks.
  • Added a debug facility which can be used with support to troubleshoot problems downloading Google Bookmarks.
  • Fixed a couple of broken links in Bookdog Help book.
  • Changed bundle identifier of Bookwatchdog to com.sheepsytems.Bookwatchdog, so it is different than Bookdog's, and rewrote code in both Bookdog and Bookwatchdog to handle this.  This does not fix any known misbehavior, but was done to conform to recently-realized Apple documentation stating that bundle identifiers should be unique.
