Go into your user folder, then go into your Library folder, then choose your Safari folder. Your bookmarks should be in there. I'm not currently on my computer right now, so I couldn't tell you exactly where it is. If you can't find your Safari folder, run a search for Safari in your Library folder. If you still can't find it, just let me know and I'll find it when I get home.

Just backup the "bookmarks.plist", or the whole Safari folder. Why would you want to open it?

You can open it with the application "Property List Editor". I think it's installed along with the developer tools (a seperate CD that come with Mac OS X).

You can also open it with BBEdit.
