Install the FoxMarks extension on both machines ... you'll LOVE it. And, it now works with Safari as well.

What BikerRob mentioned works great if you use more than one machine a lot.. If your doing a switchover like I did (Im a fresh convert) click bookmarks, than organize bookmarks, then you can export your bookmarks to an HTML file. Once thats done you repeat the exact same process on the mac only this time using import rather than export..

Foxmarks certainly take my breath away:D! Save me lot of times transferring back and fro! I used a lots of various of computers, btw. I wont worry abt if all my computers are stolen, cos all bookmarks are safe as google mail!

I wholeheartly recommend foxmarks to any1 with more than 1 computer.

Many Thanks to BikerRob.

(touch the wood so all computers wont be stolen!)
