My del.icio.us bookmarklet

Categories: bookmarklets, del.icio.us

I like Alan Marklet’s Maker, the tool that let you create bookmarklets to add links to del.icio.us. But I wanted something more.

What I needed was something that let me either use some text I highlighted in the page, or else the description meta-tag. So I hacked the original bookmarklet and made it my own.

To Install:
1. Type in your del.icio.us user name in the textbox below, then click on ‘update link’:

2. Drag the following link to your toolbar, if your browser has one : +del.icio.us

3. That’s it!

To Use:
When you run into a page you want to bookmark, either click on the bookmarklet to take your chance with its description tag (if it’s got one), or use your cursor to highlight some text in the page, then click on the bookmarklet.
