Mozilla Weave
Encyclopedia
Firefox Sync, originally branded Mozilla Weave, allows users to partially synchronize bookmarks, browsing history, preferences, passwords, filled forms, and last 25 opened tabs across multiple computers.
It keeps user data on Mozilla servers, but the data is encrypted in such a way that no third party, not even Mozilla, can access user information.
Mozilla also offers two synchronization server applications for use with Firefox Sync, for users and businesses that prefer to host their own synchronization data. Weave Server 1.0 (released in January 2010) is intended for large installations, while Weave Minimal Server (in prototype stage ) can be used for modest browser-data sharing (e.g., for home use or between friends or family).
