So I need to keep my computer at home turned on all the time?

That sounds expensive. I just submitted an article related to the topic of data center power consumption: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4744488

Would be nice to have links pushed to the "cloud" and have the home computer pull the info when it starts up.

Even better, you should find a way to somehow use Firefox Sync via javascript so that you don't have to maintain the server. [Ditto the same thing for Chrome Sync]

It doesn't have to run constantly, it will open everything queued on launch, so you could just open it periodically/once a day.

I specifically wanted to keep it browser non-specific, that's why there are no hooks like that in it.

Ok, got it. This aspect isn't clear in your screenshots though. Good luck!
