browser bookmarks

Stored website shortcuts

Browser bookmarks are saved links to web pages, allowing quick return to sites without typing addresses or searching.

Most browsers display bookmarks in a toolbar or menu.

The term borrows from physical bookmarks that hold one's place in a book.

I keep my favorite recipes in my browser bookmarks.

Also called favorites in some browsers.
