# How to save bookmarks in Chrome

The fastest way to save a bookmark in Chrome is to select the "Bookmark" icon to the right of the address bar. A Chrome bookmark is a saved link. For notes, questions, and saved knowledge, consider a knowledge base such as KnowMan.

Type `@bookmarks` in the address bar, then press Tab or Space. You can also select "Search bookmarks". Enter your keywords to find matching bookmarks, as shown in [Chrome Help](https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/188842).

## Import bookmarks from another browser or an HTML file

Select More > "Bookmarks and lists" > "Import bookmarks and settings" > "Choose file" > "Open" > "Done". This imports bookmarks from another browser or a bookmarks HTML file. See [Chrome Help](https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/96816) for details.

## Export your bookmarks to an HTML file

## When Chrome bookmarks are not enough

Chrome keeps links, not answers about [what an article said](https://www.knowman.io/guides/ai-that-remembers-what-you-read). KnowMan is a [knowledge base](https://www.knowman.io/guides/ai-knowledge-base) first, not a plain bookmark manager. KnowMan works with a [Chrome extension](https://www.knowman.io/guides/best-bookmark-manager-chrome-extension), and its Free plan includes five Ask questions a day. See [a guide to bookmark managers](https://www.knowman.io/guides/best-bookmark-manager) for other options.
