xbrowsersync is my best find in the past year. Opensource, decentralized public syncing servers or you can build your own. It does not save passwords (that's good or bad depending on your perspective :). It is not available in IOS due to developer fees.

WordPress and PressIt plug-in. Searchable, accessible from anywhere, and I own it, no worries about service shutting down.

Can we have a Chrome bookmark button using this method or only manually add urls in wordpress?

Yeah that's the main reason for Press It plugin. You can create a bookmarklet that should work in the most browsers. I use it in Chrome, it also grabs page title and some content from the page and prefills it.

Also I use this instance of WordPress like a scrapbook and dump all kind of information in there. While reading books on phone or iPad, I can add quotes from them. Android app is pretty good for this. Also I take photo notes for example while shopping for something in a physical store, I can add pictures of them to a post etc and then review later. Once a month or so, I download backup.
