Mozilla Weave

The last firefox update reminded me to write about a plugin which adds a feature which i missed for a long time. Weave gives you the possibility to sync your bookmarks, tabs, history, form data and passwords between all of your computers. That's pretty nice when you look up something on your laptop or at work and later at home you wish to access this information again. Instead of doing the hard google search job again you can now go to history and/or check your browsing data from the other computer.
One problem occured to me though. There's a chance to forget all of your passwords since you don't have to enter your username/password in every forum and community site again. But on the other hand all of your browsers data lies now safely encrypted in the mozilla cloud so you would only need to remember your password there.

There's even support for FreeBSD now.
So go ahead and give it a try!
