Something else to think about is weather your using Foxmarks for backing up or syncing your bookmarks across multiple machines. For backup something simple like FTP or rsync will work great, syncing however is a completely different beast. To sync you need to deal with fun issues like what to do when you have changes on both your local machine and the server. If you are looking to do sync across multiple machines to the server, then your best option may be to use some type of VCS like git or svn. Its a little heavy handed but VCS tools will be much better at dealing with the sync issues.
