Synchronising my personal information world!

As a fan of Firefox (and now of Flock) I thought it worth mentioning that Firefox has an extension from Google to help you syncrhronise your activites.

While social bookmarking with tools like Del.ic.ious has made a huge impact (and improvement) on the way we can store information about our web resources, I still like the option to synchronise between my computers.

After a bit of a skirmish with Google Desktop – which I find very useful for indexing my machine – I am interested to see how effective this Firefox extension will be.

If you use Firefox on more than one computer then you will be well served by looking at the Google Browser Synch tool.

Google Browser Sync for Firefox is an extension that continuously synchronizes your browser settings – including bookmarks, history, persistent
cookies, and saved passwords – across your computers. It also allows you to restore open tabs and windows across different machines and browser sessions.

You can encrypt all of the information that flows between your computer and Google.
