Hi,

I currently have work laptop (windows-chrome), home PC (linux - Firefox) ad ipad/iphone (ios7 - safari).

Can anyone suggest a means to automatically synchronise my bookmarks across all of the above. I used to use xmarks, but they then started charging, and seem to be on the way out ( might be wrong here).

So, i am looking for free (or nearly free) solutions to manage my bookmarks and synch across numerous devices platforms.

Any advice appreciated.

Thanks.

Just use chrome on everything and sign in to it on each device. Problem solved.

It will synchronise everything too, even history and tabs.

I'd also recommend the lastpass plugin to manage all your web based passwords across devices.

There's an option to "sign in" to chrome in the settings which will synchronise everything in the copy of chrome on each device.
