Understanding your Favorites List

My favorites list is very long and getting longer all the time. Most of the time I don't remember why I added some of them to the list. An easy way to remember, is to rename them to something that you are more familiar with. To do this, right click on one of the favorites and click rename. Now rename it to something else that is easier for you to remember.
