Safari Menu let's you view all your bookmarks from the Safari web browser system wide. This means that you can go to any site you've got in your bookmarks with just one click.
Additionally, you can directly go to any URL or search in the Google search engine and you can share your bookmarks over a local network using Rendezvous technology.
