As if we all needed another way to backup or sync our bookmarks from computer to computer – there is now a Firefox extension that allows you to do it via Box.net and their free file hosting service.
Here are a few kind words from the creators of the Box.net Bookmark Synchronizer extension:
Backup your bookmarks! Use the Box.net Backup tool to save your favorite bookmarks online or to sync bookmarks between multiple computers.
Does this extension do anything that the others do not? No, not really – but if you have been looking for something to do with that Box.net hosting you have, this might be one way to put it to good use.
Am I doing something wrong? I try to register to box.net but they keep asking me for a credit card or paypal account… is it free?
Hi Paula, yes it is – make sure you are signing up for the “Lite” plan here:

Sorry. I fail to see the lite plan. There are only 3 plans to choose, as 14 days free trials.
I do not own a paypal account or credit card, so I’m stuck there.
Sorry about my english, and thanks for your help.
Not a problem, always happy to help! You might try dropping them an e-mail at support@box.net to see what the issue might be. Hope all works out for the best for you!
