I don't know how this compares to Bookmark Converter, but I use Bookmarks Synchronizer and it seems to handle Livebookmarks just fine. It does require an FTP server, though.
Bookmarks Synchronizer is a Mozilla Firefox extension that let you connect to an FTP server and synchronize your bookmarks that are stored in an XML file. Setup is easy; just write in your FTP server address, username, password and a name for the XML file (by default called xbel.xml). To start, press Upload to create the file on the server and set if you want to automatically download the file on startup or upload it when you close your browser.
Try BookmarksHome. It displays your bookmarks in an HTML page, customized through CSS, which can be set to be your start page if you would like. It can be configured to only show certain folders, including LiveBookmark ones.
From the BookmarksHome page: BookmarksHome makes a pretty startup page out of your bookmarks. The layout of this page is highly customizable. Items high in the bookmarks tree (as you see it when you open the Bookmarks menu) will appear at the top of the page. Changes in your bookmarks will be visible after reloading the BookmarksHome page.
No, it's not you. It's not your fault that you approach the world from a survival-of-the-species point of view and don't believe that a magical lovingbutvengeful fairy king in the sky who is going to come down and destroy all of existence while taking his faithful undead paladins to live in magical fairy land in the sky to forever stroke his diefic ego to remind him just how lovingbutvengeful he is.
Yes but your $2.90 for a Big Mac could pay for enough beans, rice and veggies to feed a family for at least a few days (more if stretched). So, on that note, I have to tell you that your McDonald's purchase was the height of waste and rich indulgence. Your money and the money that McDonald's spends to mass-produce food product could have been better spent.
Yeah so all the comments here are "oh wow being paid to play games is considered bad"?
Slashdot or the submitter shouldn't have used the word "sweatshop" because it focuses attention on the working conditions away from the fact that there are companies who really game the system in MMO's for profit. It gets to the point that their actions ruin the in-game economy and playability.
Consider Everquest2. There supposedly exists a group of people who work for one "Boss" (that's actually his in-game name). These people run teams of bot-driven characters who farm items, drive up prices, intrude in other's playing space etc. Supposedly a lot of their items end up being sold on online auctions.
Didn't say they were relevant to anything. Just pointing out that you were criticizing something that you've either never read or you've just forgotten what the common thread in the stories were. Maybe you were thinking of the movie.
Agreed. It's not that Slashdot isn't keeping up with those who are on the "glass teats" 24/7 or who constantly monitor websites. The fact of the matter is that there are a handful of sites that 'break' stories that end up appearing on Slashdot a few days later. Sometimes it's blatently obvious where these stories are coming from.
The might work intuitive in a hand-waving 1940s science fiction story. But when you try to find a place for them in modern Computer Science, they're just too vague and general to plug in anywhere. How on earth do you program "don't hurt people"?
I hate to be a spoiler but it has to be said: THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT THE STORIES ARE ABOUT.
I thought they only had a trademark on "Microsoft Windows" but that their trademark application for "Windows" had been rejected as too generic. It's possibly that I'm completely misremembering it thought.
I think that either you don't understand what CSS is about and how it works or maybe you are just making it harder than it is by thinking of things in a programming mindset. You're essentially asking for constants in a CSS file, am I right? Where you are trying to set the color to red in your hypothetical #define statement... you simply do that at the color: statement (well, technically it would be background:).
The intention of CSS is to seperate document presentation from document structure. While doing this, it also attempts to give a high degree of control to the person creating the style definitions. At the same time, there are no variables and constants within the CSS 'language'. I think you're trying to fit a rectangle into a circle.
There's an old saying on Tatooine -- I know it's on Naboo, probably on Tatooine -- that says, fool me once, shame on -- shame on you. Fool me -- you can't get fooled again.
If all the riftraft and other clueless morons leave Usenet then it will become a useful comunications tool for a small but well inteligent group of users again. Small I mean as in 10,000 or 20,000 users. In other words it will return to its roots where people, such as myself, will begin running small and large servers decited to the free exchange of ideals.
You have no clue about the irony in your post, do you?
You don't need a new keyboard - just have the settings adjusted on each system/laptop.... (assuming you are a touch-typist anyway).
"Dvorak has been built in to Microsoft Windows since version 3.0."
This page tells you how to do just that in various MS Windows flavors, OS X and.... Lindows/Linspire. I'm sure you can find out how to do it in X by yourself.
I use QWERTY out of laziness, so I am far from a DVORAK religious nut. I also find that most who are against switching are also lazy (when it comes to this.) Just sayin....
No, that's been there for quite awhile. It has definitely been in the browser before 1.0 and possibly has been in place since the first preview/alpha releases. Someone else may know the exact moment it appeared.
5 months later, I found myself having trouble shaking off common colds, and my appetite went down hill. People should be aware of the health issues, not just specs.
I'm not trying to troll here, but maybe... just maybe.... those health issues aren't from sitting around in front of 5 CRTs necessarily, but maybe years of just sitting around, period.
The publisher calls the shots on what is produced or not. They have all of the power when it comes to those decisions. It's not necessarily wrong, either. Since the publisher is putting up all of the money, they should have that right, correct?

Anyway, the point is indeed getting rid of menial labor but not because of the fact that it is boring and repetitive. The reason is to cut labor costs (and associated time/costs that gets streamlined in the process, not just the actual boring task itself). That's pretty much it.

Oooooh, I see. Sorry, totally misunderstood you since that's not a feature I personally want.

Technically, you're correct but money for legal fees is more a more important factor than the trademark itself.

What does that mean? Does the "Cascading" part of Cascading Style Sheets not cover that?

Exercise improves your health and your appetite.

Yeah the only reason I noticed the mispelling was that I pronounce it with the "s", myself. It almost looks like the dictionary has it wrong.
Hope your spell casting is up to par...

create more opportunities for jobs that are interesting and require some skill and creativity.
You got it right except that part. That is actually not the point of computers (aka automation).
