Sync Bookmarks and Passwords with Foxmarks (Firefox)

foxmarks-sync.jpgMost Firefox users (smart ones, anyway) use Foxmarks to keep their bookmarks in sync across multiple PCs. Thanks to a new update, the program is even better: Foxmarks now syncs Firefox passwords as well.

This new feature, which is disabled by default (hit the settings to enable it), relies on 256-bit AES encryption, so you can rest assured your passwords will stay safe. And you need to supply a PIN to encrypt your passwords and access them on another PC.

Score! This is particularly good news given the demise of Google Browser Sync. If you're already a Foxmarks user, Firefox has probably pushed the update to you by now. If not, it's definitely a must-have extension.
