If you’re one who works on different workstations or computers (shifting from one desktop to a laptop and back), then one issue you might have is keeping your bookmarks all in synch on all of your machines.
Firefox and IE do have an option to export your bookmarks but who wants to do the tedious task of importing and exporting just on every darned machine you have. Good thing for us Firefox users, we have Foxmarks - an online bookmark synchronizing service that keeps our bookmarks, well, in-synch.
It works silently in the background synching our bookmarks. And if you’re using another terminal without Foxmarks, you can log-in to my.foxmarks.com to get an online copy of your bookmarks. Get it this, it works on Firefox 1.5 and up on Mac, Windows and Linux so you can synch bookmarks across computers too.
But it doesn’t really hurt to backup your bookmarks too via the Organize Bookmarks option.

1SyncMarks extension
Synchronizes Firefox with InternetExplorer, FTP/HTTP/HTTPS server, local file system.
In server and local file system cases, it uses XML or HTML format.
Originally maintained on mozilla site but the last version there is v0.3.
The newest version is v.0.4.2 at

Because it overwrites the targets, it is makes more an export than a real sync. Anyway, what it exports (HTML or XML) can be used on another machine.
