Google Bookmark
Dec 23, 2007 11:31PM PST

There're so many choices, but Google Bookmark is by far the best service I've ever used. If you use Google Toolbar, it's even better. Personally, I use FireFox with a Google bookmark add-on by Pau Thomas. It's unbelievably convenient. I can access my bookmarks anywhere I go. Here's a link to the Google Bookmark add-on: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2453

Jan 5, 2008 2:18AM PST

I use Firefox in both Windows and linux environment and also have a google account.

So far I have found google sync working best for me. It can synchronizes saved passwords, history and cache apart from bookmarks.

Hi!
I really like the Yahoo toolbar for storing all my bookmarks. It is easy to use and seems to fit my purposes great.

The most convenient and readily accessible place to store your bookmarks is as a text body of an email. Open your browsers bookmark manager and export your bookmarks. Open your exported bookmarks with your browser. Select all, copy, paste into the text body of an email you will compose.
If you only have one email account that does not allow you to send an email to yourself, enable your account to save a copy of sent email. This will allow accessing the bookmarks by opening up the email from your sent folder.
If you want to be able to import the bookmarks into another browser, also add the exported bookmarks as an attachment to the email.
I personally use a free hotmail.com email account for the away from home use. Depending on sites you visit, you may consider to clear all history, cookies etc to protect you privacy.

Firefox has a service called sync bookmarks or something like that and the service is free of course. I've been using it for a few months and no problems.

Foxmarks for Forefox suites me just fine...
Jan 5, 2008 11:33PM PST

Foxmarks (www.foxmarks.com) enables you to access your bookmarks on the Internet from anywhere (much like del.icio.us). It also offers synchronizing options which I use to keep my Office and Home Firefox in sync. You will need to install the Firefox addon though. Also, heard the Firefox 3 is coming with its own synchronizing options.

Thanks, "Dexter".

The best place to store all the favorite bookmarking is thru Yahoo. You can organized your topics according to your preferences with folders and subfolders.

Try it if your using yahoo. There's no harm in trying it might help.

Save to email address?
Jun 3, 2010 8:26PM PDT

Not sure what you mean.

If you "export" your bookmarks or favorites to a file, then you can email that file wherever you like, even back to you. But that will just be an attachment to the email.
