Another improvement idea I've had, and have seen variants of on predecessor threads to this one, is to have more than one bookmarks page per member. The member would have some way to control which one was the active page, and only that page would be updated.

I like to keep many threads bookmarked, but only view a small number on a regular basis. If I had two bookmark pages, I would keep my 10 active threads on one page, and my 40 inactive threads on another. This would greatly speed up the loading of my bookmarks page. It might also increase my willingness to keep more infrequently viewed threads bookmarked, since they would no longer slow down my regular use of SI. I have dropped many threads from being bookmarked for this very reason, and I suspect many others have as well.

As far as the other ideas on enhancing the bookmarks page, i.e., adding the ability to delete many at once, the need might be mitigated with the above suggestion. As for adding notes capability, that's a good idea.
