Google Browser Sync is freeware beta software from Google which debuted in Google Labs on June 8, 2006. It allows users of the Firefox web browser to synchronize their settings across multiple computers via the Internet. It requires a Google account, in which the user's cookies, saved passwords, bookmarks, browsing history, tabs, and open windows can be stored. The data is optionally encrypted using an alphanumerical PIN, which theoretically thwarts even Google from reading the data. Passwords and cookies are always encrypted.
Currently, the extension only works with versions of Firefox 1.5 and newer.
