The good news is, I know, without a doubt, that our weekly tape backups have all been good for over a month now, and I won’t even have to do my normal, routine tests to determine that.

Looks like Google is getting into the Firefox extension that lets you keep your bookmarks, settings, cookies, etc. synchronized across computers. The only difference here is that your information is kept on Google’s servers, encrypted of course so that only you would have the key to access it. I’m not sure I like the idea…
