The both are complementary i think.
For Gnus, i use bookmark to quickly save a mail with (C-x r m), but i
also use Org with remember when i want to store more info (TODOS, notes
etc...)

You can actually store all Firefox bookmarks to a org file.
Not a specific Firefox bookmark folder (that can be done though).

For the moment, from firefox, i record only the title and url of

however,i can record more infos if needed:
All infos that are provided by the firefox bookmarks.
