LastPass Acquires Xmarks, Keeping Free Bookmark-Syncing Plans Available [Bookmarks]

From the files of the Acquisition Totally Makes Sense Dept.: Universal password manager LastPass, maker of our favorite any-browser-anywhere security solution, is acquiring Xmarks, the bookmark syncing tool that was scheduled to shut down in January 2011 from lack of revenue, but then bought and saved (the unnamed buyer, whom we now know).

Go ahead and check out the upgrade to Xmarks premium.
