I heartily recommend the Foxmarks 'add-on'. Your bookmarks are backed
up on their server

Meaning that they can access your bookmarks. That is something I
wouldn't do. From their privacy statement: "We may analyze in
aggregate the bookmarks of all users in order to deliver services of
interest to other users. Such aggregate analysis will always exclude
any personally identifying information. For instance, if we notice
that many users are suddenly bookmarking a new site, we may display
that site in a list of 'hot sites.'" Doesn't sound overly suspicious,
but I'm on another point of principle here.

"Bookmark Sync and Sort" uploads your bookmarks to an ftp site of your own
choice (where you have write permission!) and works well for me. Something
to do with the free webspace that comes with some ISP accounts.
