It seems that the strange screen shot we saw just prior to Panther's release is the new .Mac Bookmark sync preferences.

Unfortunately, I'm unable to get to the .Mac main page so I can download it and try it out.

Cool - Its not a new app, its actually a web browser window that you open from .Mac

Very cool

yes!!

now i have access to all my bookmarks when on my PC at work. And i can even ADD bookmarks from my pc to them that will get synched to my three other macs.

.mac keeps getting better with no signs of slowing down. I'm loving it.

This is quite a nice touch to the .Mac service.

I have to say this is a great add on to the services. I use an online service for this as I don't have .Mac. You can search in google on "bookmarks online" for similar services. It's not as elegant as syncing but works ok for instance when you are at the library.

It also works great on Mozilla on the Mac, for those of us that use it in addition to or in place of Safari.

Nice to see Apple adds features to .Mac. The files syncing of Panther will be nice, but 100MB of iDisk is low. For the price we should get more, or it should be only $70. Yet I am happy with the service.

It's funny how they use brushed metal when using Safari, but when using Mozilla/OSX or IE/Win it uses a style close to Aqua in Jaguar.

Tried it in Opera for Windows as well and they tell me I am not using a standard-complient browser. That just makes me laugh!
