Like many fellow hackers, I use multiple devices to surf the net every day: mobile phone, iPad, laptop, desktop etc. I always face the problem of losing my browser session when I switch platforms. My straw-man solution is to manually save and restore links of open pages via Google Bookmarks. It works but is pretty inefficient. Do you know a better alternative? If not, what would an ideal cross-browser solution be like?
I don't know if one exists, but a browser plugin that allows for cookie synching might be able to do this. If it doesn't exist, someone should make it.<p>Chrome has built in bookmark synching tied to your google account.
Sorry for not providing a direct answer, but ...<p>I simply carry my laptop around.<p>That is, I don't surf with the mobile phone or desktop computer in the first place. When I bought my laptop, I carefully chose a model that is small enough to be carried around everywhere, but big enough for serious, daily work.<p>In other words: I bought a <i>portable working platform</i> that frees me from having to switch platforms.<p>Of course, at home and at work I attach a monitor, keyboard and mouse to it. But I often forget to do that without even noticing, because my laptop has a very good keyboard and I'm so used to it that it feels more natural than most external keyboards.
