google chrome bookmark image


Craig Walker

Recently, Google added a new interface when users click the star icon in the address bar to add a website to their bookmarks.

The UI displays the page title along with everything in the meta description element (if it exists), but I'm wondering if there is a way to set the displayed image, or if this is just a decorative element for Chrome:

enter image description here

seriously chicken

The top of the page appears to contain some data. You probably know that you can use meta tags to set icons, gps coordinates and many other things. Now, some new tags ( Opengraph meta tags) are used to define some information that best describes the content of the website you are browsing. For example, on Facebook, when you share a link, this opengraph data is used to create a nugget that aggregates and displays a picture of the linked website.

So, for clarity and talking about code, just try this line in your head:

<meta property="og:image" content="http://ia.media-imdb.com/images/rock.jpg" />

Tried this while writing this post on a small static site I'm working on and it seems to be good!
