Bookmarks Synchronizer - Today's Browser Tip
by Jordan Running Oct 20th 2005 at 10:20PM
For today's browser tip, David Chartier over at TUAW points us to Bookmarks Synchronizer. Bookmarks Synchronizer is an extension for Firefox that, like similar functionality in Safari and .Mac, keeps your bookmarks in sync over many different machines. It does this by uploading your bookmarks via FTP/WebDAV. You can set it to sync when you start or quit Firefox, or only when you want to, and it's cross-platform so it's easy to keep your Windows machine and your Mac in sync.
With Halloween fast approaching, it's a great time to get in some practice defending your territory against zombies. In Graveyard Shift, you take aim at zombies and other creepy-crawlies, blasting them into splatters of cartoony green guts. It's a casual first-person shooter, and it's very easy to get the hang of - use the mouse to aim, click to fire. Graveyard Shift has at least 15 levels, and it might even have some secret stages I haven't unlocked yet.
They key to getting good at Graveyard Shift is learning to use ...

This was an awesome extention when it worked. But, it's very old, so i am not sure why you are posting this.

This extension is a must-have for me, and it works fine for me using firefox 1.0.7. However, development seems to have been abandoned so there will not be a version to work with the upcoming firefox 1.5.

This extension was essential to me on 1.0.7.
However as mentioned, it doesn't work with 1.5, which is killing me.
The sync on start/close of browser doesn't work, either, and even if it did I really don't recommend using it should it ever begin to work. If you happen to open a browser on say your work machine while your browser at home is still running, whichever browser closes second wins - whichever closes first, all those new bookmarks are lost. Synch manually, and carefully.

Does it really not work with 1.5, or do you just have to hack the version number?
