Here’s a bookmarklet that produces a popup version of the latest and greatest del.icio.us post interface. It grabs the selected text for the “extended” field and prompts you if nothing is selected. You can strip out the if you don't like that part...

popup post to del.icio.us

I made a neat mailto bookmarklet that uses the page title as the Subject, and puts the URL and any selected text into the Body. It was tricky because Javascript wanted to interpert the %0D%0A (crlf) too early, so I had to escape the %’s as %25, i.e. %0D%0A -> %250D%250A -> %22%250D%250A%22 (when surrounded by double quotes).

There some nice code hidden in Yoz Grahame’s avar.icio.us bookmarklet that does tag autocompletion and suggests secondary tags based on the primary tag. Great stuff.

Inspiried by “this example”:http://www.blurty.com/talkread.bml?journal=marcn&itemid=55194, I cooked up a bookmarklet for delicious that copies the selected text into the extended field on the delicious post form. Unlike the original, the extended description in optional. It works in “Firefox”:http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/.

Just drag this to your bookmark toolbar del.icio.us post

(thanks to “Jesse Ruderman”:http://www.squarefree.com/ for the CSS for the button — very nice.)

Update: Seb made a nice tweak that uses the main delicious page to post, which has the benefit of displaying previous post and tags…

…I don’t like having to click through the various fields on the “post to MovableType” form when posting to my MT linkroll. I basically wanted it to be a one-click affair. After looking at the MT source and deciding it was too complicated to bother hacking, I went and found Net::MovableType, and hacked up a simple cgi which has the options set the way I want them. Then I made a new version of the jscript “bookmarklet,” that points to my cgi, and hey presto, one-click blogrolling! This took me all of 60 minutes. I suppose this time could have been better spent, but it’s satisfying to know that I can come home and write a bit of code after winning $30 and three pints at the pool hall. Thanks Sherzod! (and Brett The only question is, is del.icio.us cooler?
