  5. With an answer like the one below, one wonders how they won.
    "Changes made on my.foxmarks.com will automatically show up and be synchronized with your bookmarks collection the next time each of your computers is synchronized. If you've made changes in your browser that aren't showing up on my.foxmarks.com, you can get the freshest version of your bookmarks from the Foxmarks server by simply reloading the my.foxmarks.com page. "

    Obviously, if you update bookmarks on a computer you want them loaded to xmarks, not obliterated by xmarks.

  6. wshwuzfshn: I'm not sure I understand the nature of your concern, exactly; if you update bookmarks on a computer and then synchronize with the Xmarks server, those changes are propagated to the Xmarks server, not "obliterated".

    Unless there's something I'm overlooking?
