Product Description:

With Bookit you'll no longer have to run bookmark manager applications to have the same bookmarks between all of your browsers. Bookit 3 also allows you to synchronize bookmarks from remote computers or even Classic web browsers. Bookit reads the bookmarks you have and then lets you organize the bookmarks you may not have in all your browsers. Bookit then creates new bookmark files for the browsers you have selected. Bookit also is a complete organizational tool, while customizing your bookmarks you may: add bookmarks, add folders, add dividers, and move everything anywhere. Bookit is truly the ultimate bookmark management system.

What's new in this version:

  • Fixed a few issues syncing Firefox's bookmark menu folder with Safari and Camino.
  • Fixed an issue syncing a Bookit bookmark file with Safari and Camino.
  • Restored compatibility with Mac OS 10.3.9.

Bookit CommentaryGood while it lasted... hopefully it will rise again - Version: 3.7.5, 7/22/2008 08:45PM PST

I tend to agree with the previous poster; it is a bit lame that after all this time the developer says "Luckily, it's summer and there are a lot of great things to do outside while you wait for Bookit 4." Hmm.

Having said that, though, it was a pretty good app in the past and if the next version does actually come along (soon) it'll be worth it. Obviously it's an app developed in someone's spare time so i'm not expecting corporate-level speed, but i did shell out the $$ for it so i'd like to see it work again.

til then, i'm trying out Bookdog (which does work with FF3).

Bookit CommentaryDeveloper Has Bad Attitude - Version: 3.7.5, 7/20/2008 02:19AM PST

I complained to the developer about the lack of support for FF3 by saying that it was "a bit lame" not to have that support at this point. The response:

"Frankly put, if you don't like it, use something else."

This was followed by a series of email exchanges where the devs told me how much they were "offended" by my complaint.

LOL....it appears this is a company run by teenagers or those with a teenage mentality.

Bookit ReviewWon't Synch FF...Lame - Version: 3.7.5, 7/18/2008 12:52PM PST

sgmiller
The Dev website confirms that syncing will not work with FF 3 and they are working on it....lame at this point.

I also have Bookdog (no relation to company) and it syncs fine with FF# as well as doing other useful things. At this point, I see no reason to keep Bookit except that it has a much nicer Icon. Come to think of it, I think I will switch the icons....problem solved!
