Places Organizer will store all bookmarks and history in embedded SQLite DB. They promise performance and reliability boost while enchasing bookmarking experience. It will also feature bookmark backups and sorting.

You will be able to see Places Organizer in action probably in about one month: this is estimation for pre-release version of Firefox 3.0 M9 version. But development process can be delayed till the beginning of January 2008.

According to Janco Associates data Firefox now handle about 17% or whole browser market. There were downloaded 400 million copies of this browser.
