Use dividers to help group Safari bookmarks

I like to keep Safari's bookmark bar organized so I can get places quicker. So I use dividers to separate my folders, JavaScript search buttons, and single page bookmarks.

Click on the bookmark icon to show all bookmarks, and duplicate a bookmark you use a lot (in my case, a search Froogle javascript). Rename it "||" or something else divisive, and drag it in-between your different types of bookmark buttons. Voila! Topically separated bookmarks.

Also, I like to indicate search JavaScripts with a "»" suffix just to remind myself what they'll do.

[robg adds: I had done this for a while, but found that I preferred having the Command-1 through Command-9 shortcuts (for the first nine items on the bookmarks bar) functional instead. With dividers, you'll give up some keyboard shortcuts, but it may be worth it if you're primarily a mouse user...]
