"Keeping your bookmarks synchronized between different computers is difficult since operating systems represent data differently. While social bookmarking sites like digg and del.icio.us, or RSS readers like Google?s Personalized Home and Bloglines let account holders store links and feeds to their favorite sites, I?ve found that I still want to use traditional bookmarks, but am frustrated when I move between my different computers and they are not there. With the Bookmarks Synchronizer Firefox extension and an FTP account, this problem goes away. If you don?t have access to an FTP server, I?ll show you how to setup a free account at Ripway that you can use with this extension.
