After installing it on 5 browsers, every time I open a different one I still have a different set of bookmarks. I synced them all several times now... still after using one... and making changes, when I open a different one it is not setup like the last one. Even manually syncing it does not result in the same bookmarks. So I guess I'd have to say googles' claims are mostly baloney -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
