Are you tired of having some favorites in Internet Explorer and then some bookmarks in Firefox? Having multiple browsers and multiple Web sites marked can make surfing the Web into a real task. Which favorites were in IE and which bookmarks were in Firefox? To help sort the clutter, we have PlainOldFavorites.

Here is what the developer has to say about this extension.

Firefox has a great Bookmarks system. It has many wonderful and useful features, and the bookmarks can be exported and imported from many bookmark formats.

There are even several extensions out there that allow you to synchronize your bookmarks with a remote server, the Windows Favorites folder and so on. Some users still wish to keep some or all their bookmarks in the Windows Favorites folder. There can be several reasons for this. First, some new Firefox users might find the transition to Firefox smoother if they can still use their familiar Favorites folder.

Also, a link to the Favorites folder can be found in several places throughout Windows, which makes it a convenient option for storing links. PlainOldFavorites allows using the Favorites folder directly from Firefox without needing to import or synchronize the bookmarks first.

No importing and no synchronizing; that is what makes this Firefox extension great. It just works. To get more information about how to tweak it to fit your needs, check out the PlainOldFavorites Web site.

This Firefox extension is for versions 1.0 and up of the browser. If you want to download it and try it out for yourself, you can do so at the Mozilla Update Web site.
