It’s about my 10th. The chances of its long-term survival are bleak I’m afraid.

]]> Comment on Firefox Sync and Home by Dominic http://www.dominicmanley.com/public/blog/2010/11/22/firefox-sync-and-home/comment-page-1/#comment-1653 Dominic Tue, 22 Feb 2011 06:45:21 +0000 http://www.dominicmanley.com/public/blog/?p=772#comment-1653 Quick update: I've now switched to Google Chrome and its built-in browser sync. Despite my fondness for Firefox, Chrome is just making to much ground in the browser space now for me to ignore. Also, the missing features I couldn't do without in FF's Firebug extension are now available in Chrome's developer tools. So I've been able to make the switch relatively painlessly. While this means no more Firefox Home on iPhone I was finding the app quite buggy. It often popped up syncing errors when it reached the history. I tried clearing everything out but it kept doing it :( There's currently no way of accessing Chrome's synced bookmarks on iPhone right now so I may start using Xmarks again as it seems to have been given a renewed lease of life (it's no longer shutting down!).
