Google Browser Sync (Firefox extension)
This Firefox extension will sync your Firefox bookmarks, settings, saved passwords, persistent cookies, etc. onto Google (similar to existing GDrive-type applications) thus causing those bookmarks, settings, etc. show up automagically on every Firefox you use.
For example, you add a bookmark at home. It gets pushed onto Google's server. Later, at the office, you open Firefox... and the bookmark shows up there too!
There are definitely privacy issues (remember: saved passwords can also be sync'd; though you can configure what you want sync'd)... but this may be very convenient for some people who find themselves bouncing from computer to computer to computer.
