Hookmark Version 6.1 (5967; Integration v. 318) is now available for download.
Hookmark now features tags! In Context window, use Action ☰ button or ⌃T to add a tag to the currently selected item. There is now a Tags view in the Bookmarks window where you can click a tag and see all the items that have the tag. Manage tags there too (rename and delete them). For example, if you’re writing a paper on butterflies you can tag links to emails, web pages, and more, with “Butterflies”. If you enable syncing, your tags will be synced across your Macs.
