    Firefox sync..It's not as good as X-marks but it will improve in the future(hopefully).X-marks is going to be missed.They are trying to keep it alive as a paid service.

    Do you need to have FF to have the FF sync service?

    Yes you need FF. Firefox Sync is not an Xmarks replacement.

    I would suggest Chrome.

    Syncs everything, including extensions.

    Yeah...I have been using Chrome. But I recently have begun using IE9 beta...so, the question stands, how to sync bookmarks across all my browsers - Chrome, Opera and IE9?

    Edit: I don't use FF...any version!
