move you bookmarks between computers

Most of time I face problem when I lose my bookmarks. Its important to take backup of bookmarks which easily transfer between systems. After doning 10min of search I comeup with 3 method.
a. Export & Import Method.
  • From the Firefox browser, click on on the "Bookmarks" menu located at the top of the window. Next, click on the "Organize Bookmarks"
  • This brings you to a separate window which lists all existing bookmarks (favorite websites). From the File menu at the top, you have the option to Import and Export.
  • If you need to import external bookmarks and merge them into Firefox, do so by clicking "Import" from the File menu. This allows you to import your favorites from Internet Explorer, or just an existing file you had saved in the past. Choose the desired option, and hit "Next" to search for your bookmarks. When done, click "Finish."
  • If you need to externally save existing Firefox bookmarks, click on the "Export" option from the File menu. Once you choose a save destination, you're all set.

b. Keep your bookmark online, few sites gives service to keep the bookmarks online and it will sync data between your firefok and there server. Just you need to create account there one of such site is http://www.mybookmarks.com/.

c. This will take backup of all your Firefox Extentions along with bookmarks. What you need to do install FEBE (Firefox Environment Backup Extension). There is another extension CLEO(Compact Library Extension Organizer) that can be used to combine all the extension and make it as a single extension file. it can also be very help full if you have your own custom made extension.
