I have to agree with you on the “StumbleUpon” toolbar….

The best productivity enhancement tool that I have ever used is JDownloader. Earlier I used to waste lot of time everyday trying to download books/mags/software, etc from file-sharing sites. Now I can automate the download process by just adding the links to JDownloader and it takes care of everything else, including countdown, captcha entry, and unpacking!

Personally, the way I keep track of my bookmarks across computers is by using Archivd. It's a web-based centralized database, so I can access all my bookmarks from anywhere (no syncing necessary!) Check it out sometime...

When we started adding computers to the house, I considered foxmarks. It is probably a nearly perfect solution if all the systems you might be using are equipped with firefox, and mine are.

I ended up choosing Gmarks instead, which is a FF addon that connects with your google bookmarks. Already being a user of several google services like docs, gmail and notebook, I’m signing in there regularly anyway, so no need for another username/password pair.

It’s ended up to be the perfect solution for me, and I’ve been glad on more than one occasion to be able to just go to the google bookmarks site to find a page I needed when I was on a client’s computer.

I might have to try leechblock.

I have been known to either restrict myself to pen & paper or the laptop with the broken wireless, to keep myself from going astray…lol. This might be a more practical solution.

Checking them all out – thanks! Just wish LeechBlock could block my TV for me.
