Browser manager

It would be able to: Synch up bookmarks between IE, Netscape, Mozilla, Opera, etc. Store bookmarks in a database, sort by category/aspects, and import and export them to HTML and other formats. Allow a "default" brower per bookmark, or popup to ask the user which browser they want to use to view the site. More on this idea of mine, my wife is yelling at me to go to bed. Seesh! I work 10am to 7pm, hardly get any time to myself, and now I cannot even type in my brilliant idea to document what I had thought of. I spent between 7:30 pm to 8:45 pm with my family, took a break to check email, post and read on IWETHEY, etc and now I cannot even do that! "Will code Visual BASIC for cash."

I want to just get the thing working and see if I can perfect it. Then release it as betaware for trials, and then perfect it a bit more and then see if it has enough interest to go to an entrepenurial project or go open source. :) "Will code Visual BASIC for cash."

Then later on make it a DBF format, or Excel sheet, etc. It also can merge the bookmarks/favorites/whatever from different browsers. Or, if I get better HTML parsing, it can rip the links from an HTML file or web site. :) "Will code Visual BASIC for cash."
