Foxmarks is better

I recently switched from Google Browser Sync to Foxmarks to keep the Firefox bookmarks synchronized between my Vista work PC and iMac at home. Google kept making little mistakes that became nightmares if I did any sort of large organizational changes. So far Foxmarks hasn't made a single mistake, and I take comfort in the more transparent process. I haven't had to use them yet, but I'm also glad it has the "force overwrite" functions that Google didn't.

Google did also sync my passwords and sessions, something the more specialized Foxmarks doesn't do. However, living without that feature hasn't turned out to be big deal.
