How do I access bookmarks anywhere?

TheBigCheese · 12 Mar 2009 at 16:03

Hi guys

I use at least two PCs daily in different locations across multiple browsers so is there an easy to use, fast and secure program / online manager that will allow me to save my bookmarks in one place online so I can access them wherever I am?

Many thanks

Another vote for Foxmarks, got it setup for the entire family so that they keep bookmarks synced between the laptops and desktop PC we have.

another foxmarks vote

great little app..

That's great, thanks for the help guys

Foxmarks sounds good but it doesn't seem to be compatible with Opera or Chrome...what would you have to do in that instance, copy the web address into IE for example and then save the bookmark for it to be synced?

Could use igoogle and the bookmarks gadget, then just sign into google on whatever machine you are on.

another vote for foxmarks (on firefox), great little app, updates to their server within a couple of seconds after shutting firefox and then its there when I load firefox on another rig.

edit: opera has it's own sync tool doesn't it (well opera 10 does) - File, syncronize opera although you may need to setup an account first

I didn't realise that Opera has a sync tool, that's fantastic, just leaves Chrome to do by hand.

The iGoogle thought it a good one and will offer the best cross browser support but I'm not too keen on Google knowing where I'm going and all my bookmarks and all the rest of it.

I've tried Foxmarks with Firefox and it works a treat, really good tip!

If I install it for IE and Safari will it sync them to the same place on my account so I would be able to open a bookmark that I saved in Safari in Firefox?

I have recently been converted to Delicious tags. Very useful program.
