A piece of good news for owners of multiple computers (who doesn’t these days?) and have resorted to Google Bookmark (or given up bookmarks all together?) because of synching problem. I haven’t found a good alternative to Google Bookmark, which is not a stellar product either but so far the best solution to across-browser/across-computer synching problem. If you use the web on your mobile heavily, Google Bookmarks is particularly a bad solution.
Firefox Weave lets you synch them and other settings in a breeze. Read about Weave Sync on Mozilla website. You can also read more about a nice overview of the ins/outs of Weave on Webmonkey’s blog.
As for add-on synching, it almost sounds like a dangerous idea if it installs new add-ons for you onto your computers, instead of merely upkeeping settings and versions… but I’m sure they’ll figure it out.
I’ve been working on a brand new website for an artist. It’s almost done and I’m looking forward to launching it.
