Attractive, yes. But why, exactly, is this better than my browser's bookmarks?

This could be better than your browser's bookmarks. While I appreciate the simplicity of it, it's too simple as it is now. The potential benefit here is in hierarchy, which bookmarks generally lack. How about this:
4 links at the big 128 x 128 size. The sites you check every session.
8 links at 64 x 64. The ones you use pretty frequently.
16 links at 32 x 32.
And heck, maybe 32 at 16x16.
I would use that.

FWIW, Chrome comes with 8 200x130 frequent sites, 8 or so top bookmarks, and 5 or so recent tabs.

Hmm... might have to build that for my own use.

It's... shinier?
Not to imply that's degrading it, lots of people have trouble handling the bookmarks menu, and this is much more graphically memorable / understandable, so it's likely they could get it more easily. The buttons are also bigger, which (though I'm HUGELY against large browser chrome) can be useful.

How is this related whatsoever?
