The (Striving) Humble Hobby Farmer

and what I wish I knew a lot sooner!

Xmarks

Yes I know this has nothing to do with farming but I do have a regular job. “Xmarks” is one of my favorite programs. The features straight from their web page:

Sync and Backup
Install Xmarks on each computer you use, and it seamlessly integrates with your web browser and keeps your bookmarks safely backed up and in sync.

Xmarks will sync across browsers too. Today we support Firefox, Chrome, Internet Explorer, and Safari (Mac OS).

I have used this for several years and it works great. It works in the background with only an occasional login needed. In my job I have to use multiple computers. I have a travel computer (Mac Air) and several older computers I have collected over 20 years. Many clients allow me to install on their computers and this little program keeps all my browsers bookmarks to be identical no matter which computer or browser I am using. This is really the most convenient helpful program on my computers.
