Sync bookmarks without .Mac using SafariDepot

SafariDepotSafariDepot is a new, free utility for syncing your Safari bookmarks without requiring the use of Apple’s .Mac service. If you have access to — or can set up — an internet-connected FTP or secure FTP server, SafariDepot can be customized to communicate and keep your bookmarks in order.

SafariDepot is a very lightweight application which needs no installation, and can be set up to run automatically using CronniX. Pimp My Safari also has some good suggestions for scheduling SafariDepot, including setting scripts as login items as well as Mac OS X’s ‘cron’ command-line utility. If you’re considering .Mac for its bookmark syncing abilities, but don’t need all the other bells and whistles, SafariDepot just might do the trick.

For Firefox, check out Foxmarks if you don't like Google Browser Sync
