Synchronize favorites and bookmarks across machines
April 1, 2005 3:43 AM
I've always wanted a way to synchronize my Internet Explorer bookmarks and Firefox favorites across my work computer and home computer, plus my laptop and Media Center PC. All of the machines are behind some form of firewall.
At months of testing different programs, I found the perfect one, and as a bonus, it happens to be free. It's simply called SyncIt and available here: http://www.2go.com.br.
There's no special UI or tool to use. You bookmark pages using your favorite browser as normal. Every few hours SyncIt looks for changes computer and in your private 2go account for changes. If it finds changes it uploads them to the server and downloads the new bookmarks. It also tracks deleted and moved bookmark.
It's great being able to bookmark a page on one machine and not worry about figuring out which machine I used to find that cool page.
