import bookmark into smartq 7 midori

Thought I'd share this little tip on importing bookmarks from another browser/machine to your smartq's default browser midori. I've had to reflash my smartq several times in the last week or two and this makes it easy to get browser bookmarks up an running again.

Midori stores it's bookmarks in xbel format (xml bookmark exchange language) in the file /home/user/.config/midori/bookmark.xbel. It's simply a matter of copying a correctly formatted file to this location. You can use this online tool http://www.linkagogo.com/go/Convert to convert bookmarks from another browser (such as your exported firefox bookmarks in html format ;) ) to xbel. :)
