To amplify what Christiaan said, the bookmarks point to the absolute path for 
each item bookmarked.

For instance, the file foo.bar might sit at

        /Users/Johndoe/Documents/foo/foo.bar

Unless an item you have bookmarked on the first computer can be reached 
following exactly the same path on the second computer 

        /Users/Johndoe/Documents/foo/foo.bar

the bookmark will fail silently. 

It is impossible for a simple bookmark to work any other way (there is nothing 
in a bookmark.plist that would allow it to do a search on your computer to find 
a file of the name you happened to have bookmarked. After all, who is to say if 
it did have that capacity that there wouldn't be five different files of the 
same name (there are many file names on my computer that get used more than 
once? Bookmarks really have to just point to a path.)  

On the other hand, if you choose to have the same username and the same file 
folder structure on all computers you interact with then the bookmarks are 
quite happily portable.
