Is it possible to change Downloads folder in Google Chrome (or any other browser) on the fly, based on the website from which I download?
Example: I start downloading on facebook.com and it downloads the file in ~/Downloads/Facebook. If I start the download from stackoverflow.com than the file is downloaded into ~/Downloads/Stackoverflow.
How can I achieve this? I imagine it would be possible to write a Stay Open AppleScript application that starts at computer startup and than continuously check domain name of my current tab. Not sure how I would change downloads folder on the fly though…

You could write a folder action script which would parse your downloaded files metadata and move them into folders based on
kMDItemWhereFromsmetadata attribute value.Or just use Downloads Router Chrome Extension with predefined location rules.
