Google Browser Sync

If you use Firefox on more then one system and are tired of having to update your bookmarks manually or even copying the bookmarks.html around, this is the answer.
The Google Browser Sync is a wonderful extention to Firefox that syncs your bookmarks, cookies, history and even saved passwords in with your gmail account. This makes using multiple systems feel like you’re using the same one. If you’re digging around your history or marking pages as much as I do this makes it much easier to keep together.

I was using a bookmark syncronizer that used FTP to save and read the bookmarks, but that was limited to only the bookmarks and the project is no longer supported and does not work with Firfox 1.5. I’m sure there are arguments about the Google Browser Sync and privacy, things like Goolge is collecting your private information for some ultimate evil goal of world domination. I think these people watched too much Pinky and The Brain.

If you use Firefox across multiple machines (even just two) this is an invaluable extention that has at least saved me a lot of trouble.
