Maintain your bookmarks online with Backflip


B. Adding pages

There are two methods to add pages to Backflip.

Method #1

This method Uses the Backflip button you added in Step 4 of the Tips for signing up. If you did not do this or need to do it on more than one machine, click on the Get Tools tab in Backflip and add the Backflip Button. Follow their directions precisely. Directions specific to your browser and platform will be given.

2. A popup window will appear (below). The URL and title will already be in the appropriate text fields. You may change the title. Type a short description.

3. Select the appropriate Folder from the popup menu. This will allow you to personally file it into your customized folders. Avoid using Backflip auto-filing system.
