    A Really cool Firefox add-on

    It's called Xmarks and it's very useful for people who like to keep bookmarks synchronized between different OS's. It's an online backup for bookmarks.
    I have not read the Privacy statements and or EULA so use it at your own risk.

    Mike,
    As I'm presently distro-hopping, all my sensitive files are in storage on a spare drive. So I decided to play around with a few things I normally wouldn't. FoxMarks (now Xmarks) is one of those things. It sure speeds up browser personalization between installs. Not sure yet if I'll keep it. I did notice the guys behind "NoScript" are using it.

    I think xmarks is the coolest thing since Firefox was invented! I know I'll be using it for awhile.

    I have been using Xmarks since it was Foxmarks. It is very nice, and they even have an install for my Windows computers to use for IE (yeah, I know).
