Isn't Topicexplorer Desktop just another Bookmark Manager?
No. Topicexplorer Desktop is more than just a bookmark manager. It is a sophisticated weblinks database containing pre-set topics, sub-topics, categories and links, arranged in logical order for easy surfing. It also allows users the ability to create their own databases of topics, sub-topics, categories and links.
With Topicexplorer Desktop you have complete flexibility to add, change or delete topics. You can create your own entire edition devoted to a particular topic or you can add to or modify a specialist plug-in edition. The choice is yours. This makes the product incredibly powerful and capable of meeting most users needs.
Topicexplorer Desktop can also be used as a file manager storing links not only to websites but to files, images, photos, music and more, making the product far more powerful.

Why store a whole list of web links on your PC?
Primarily for speed and convenience. By having website links stored locally, you can access sites much faster than wading through page after page of search engines or web directories. And it's easier to find those websites and web addresses that you've forgotten by using our simple category indexing system. No more trying to remember a URL address!
What are plug-in editions such as Home, Education, Entertainment & Travel?
These are specialist editions, with topics, sub-topics and categories designed around their specific subjects or themes. They have been created to provide greater detail on specific topics and makes the product much more powerful and useful. And the great thing is they plug straight into your Topicexplorer Desktop! No need to download any additional software, just click on the add plug-in edition and it automatically loads. And even better... they're free!.. New editions will be added including Sports, Business, Computers & Government. City Guides, Specialist Editions and Template Editions will also be added over the coming year.
