Do you use more than one computer? Well then, this tip may be indispensable: keep all your bookmarks and passwords in harmonious synchronization across every single computer that you use.One of the best things about Firefox is its extensions--the ability to add functionality to the web browser that didn't exist before--functionality that is limited only by the imagination of developers out there worldwide.
Do yourself a favor and download this must-have Firefox extension, Foxmarks. Add it to firefox on each of your computers, and you'll never have to leave your bookmarks or passwords behind again.
But what if you're on a public computer? No problem, just visit http://my.foxmarks.com to access your bookmarks. Your passwords will not be available to you from here, but at least you've got your bookmarks. Besides, if there's a password you really don't remember but it's on your home computer, that's ok because you could always just use LogMeIn and, well, that solves that problem.
Foxmarks is a wonderful app that I highly recommend. They now allow you to sync passwords as well, a feature which I don't trust yet. It looks like you are a bit behind in your useful apps and tips Mike. What gives? ;-)
ReplyDelete@nka OMG! I can't believe you called me on that!!! I'm laughing out loud right now and--boy, is it hot in here or is it just me?!
ReplyDeleteAnswer: I bought a Mac over the summer. I've got far fewer problems to solve now that I've got a Mac, and those problems are what drove my posts! I also have a new job now that works me from 9-5, so that takes up most my time during the day. At night I'm hard at work on stuff for my gluten free foods company, Oli's Products (web: http://OlisProducts.com twitter: @OlisProducts).
However, I still use Windows on a daily basis, so I'm bound to find move problems, solve them, and post about them when they come up.
And now that I have a Mac, I'll no doubt be posting tons of useful stuff for that platform, too.
I am also humbled that I have someone out there who is aware I've been behind. Truly humbled. Thanks nka!
