When Xmarks launched -- originally on Firefox as Foxmarks -- it was a novel, awesome idea. Syncing your bookmarks across browsers on different machines is extraordinarily useful. It's so useful, in fact, that Chrome and Firefox both have their own bookmark syncing implementations now and that doesn't leave much room for Xmarks. Talk of going to a "freemium" model was scrapped because Xmarks didn't want to ask people to pay for something that browsers are now providing as a standard feature.
What does this mean for current Xmarks users? Well, you'll still get to use the service for 90+ days -- I have no idea how long the plus will be -- before it shuts down for good. After that, consider Firefox or Chrome bookmark syncing, or check out the list of sync alternatives that Xmarks has posted. They mention the built-in syncing services for each browser, but they also put in a good word for Evernote and SugarSync.Xmarks bookmark syncing service calls it quits originally appeared on Download Squad on Tue, 28 Sep 2010 07:18:00 EST.
