Question about
Syncing Chrome Bookmarks with iCloud/iOS. Without using XMarks.
I've always used Safari for looks and because it syncs bookmarks with my iOS devices. But I can't argue that Chrome is more stable, if not a bit faster. Of course, the way to sync Chrome bookmarks with iOS is the classic XMarks workaround, but it's inelegant, and XMarks (oddly enough) eats up memory on my older MacBook.
Any other ideas? Or is it all in my head, and I should just stick with Safari?

What I did when I used an iOS device is just take the time to export my bookmarks from Chrome to Safari every once in a while. I never use Safari, but I just updated my bookmarks every once in a while (once I've added X number of new ones) so that they would sync with my iPhone.
It's a very inelegant solution, but probably the best if you don't want to use XMarks.

Have you tried using Google's built-in cloud bookmark/plugin/theme sync? Go to chrome://settings/personal and sign into Chrome Sync. All your bookmarks will be synced at work, home, and everywhere else.
