Transmute is freeware and portable, no installation required.

note: automated/scheduled cross-browser conversion is only available in the Pro version ($20).


Xmarks is what you're after. There is also BookmarkSync which sits in your system tray.

One more way to use Google Bookmarks in both Opera and Chrome (and probably any other browser):

  1. Add a bookmark to Google Bookmarks
    1.1 Chrome and Opera both have extensions to add pages to Google Bookmarks
    1.2 Or use the 'Google Bookmark' bookmarklet found at the bottom of the Google Bookmarks list
  2. Add a custom search engine to search for your bookmarks using the address bar. For example gb bookmarks will search for bookmarks tagged or named 'bookmark', where gb is the keyword for the Google Bookmarks search engine.

The idea and instructions on how to create a Google Bookmarks search engine come from here: https://metaed.blogspot.com/2008/12/using-google-bookmarks-in-google-chrome.html

The article describes how to create this search engine for Chrome, but the same instructions work for Opera.
