Synchronize Your Bookmarks Across Multiple Computers
If you use your computer to browse the Internet on a regular basis, it’s very likely that you have accumulated a good amount of bookmarks (favorites in Internet explorer.) Do you want to be able to synchronize your bookmarks across your computers? With Xmarks, you can.
The first step is to download Xmarks from xmarks.com. Xmarks works on Firefox, Internet Explorer, Safari and Chrome. Once it’s downloaded and installed, it will take you through a setup process. Once installed, it will allow you to backup all of your bookmarks/favorites onto the cloud where it can be accessed by any of your computers. If you add, change or delete a bookmark from one of your computers, Xmarks will do the same for your other synchronized computers.
You can also set sync profiles for your home or office. We do not recommend using Xmarks to synchronize your passwords; we use a plugin called Lastpass for that. Here’s our post regarding Lastpass Password Manager.
This is an invaluable plugin if you happen to purchase a new computer or lose the data on your old computer. If you have Xmarks setup, all you have to do is re-download it onto another computer an sign in with your account. All of you saved bookmarks will be pulled down from the cloud onto your computer.
