What Is Mozilla Weave

By Sean Aune | Jul 10, 2008

weave logoWhat is Mozilla Weave, and why is it something you need to ponder?

Weave is going to be a new addition to Firefox that allows you to synchronize your setting, bookmarks and passwords across multiple computers.  This will even allow you to someday log in from an unknown computer and access all of your information, deleting all traces of your activity as soon as you log out.  One other exciting feature is that it will let you end a session on one computer, and resume it on another with all of the tabs you had opened on the other.

This tool is in very early testing, and may not be suited to everyone at this point, but it is certainly something to keep your eye on it. This image below will give you some idea of what the service will do when it is completed.

As we said, this is very early in its development cycle, and if you do choose to give it a try, make sure to backup your Firefox before you install it!  Until it is completed, if you still need to bckup just your bookmarks, don’t forget to check out Foxmarks.

    I agree with you, nothing will ever beat having an actual back up copy of your own.
