Google recants, restores old UI to Chrome bookmarks manager

From InfoWorld: Google last week retreated after Chrome users revolted against a change in the browser, saying that it's given up on a radical redesign of the bookmarks manager.

Retreated, yes, but Google has not surrendered.

"Our team is committed to improving Chrome's bookmarks experience, but for the time being, we've decided to bring back the previous version," wrote Google employee Sarah Lee in a post to the browser's support forum [emphasis added]. "Our team will continue to explore other ways to improve the bookmarks experience. You'll see the previous version of the bookmarks manager return to your Chrome browser shortly."

Those who want to retain the new manager's look and feel will have to download and install the free Bookmarks Manager add-on from the Chrome Web Store once Google flips the browser bookmarking back to the earlier version.
