EduBloggerNews Added to Bookmarklet Maker

Prompted by Will’s post “Digg For Edubloggers/ Do We Need to Get Our Act Together”, I added EdBloggerNews as a new option to my Multi-Post Bookmarklet tool at http://cogdogblog.com/code/marklet_maker.php– mainly because I was going to try and toss EduBloggerNews a few of the links I am sending to del.icio.us. While in the code, I tried a few approaches to make all of the pop-ups jump to the head of the pack, but failed to get something to work reliably. This means if you have a few tools in the mix, the windows may pop up behind the main window. I am open to any suggestions as to end around this; adding code to name each window and then issue it a xxx.focus() did not work as expected.

Bookmarklet Tool Now in The Blog House

Therefore, the URL formerly known as: http://cogdogblog.com/alan/marklet_maker.php is now re-directed to its new home: http://cogdogblog.com/code/marklet_maker.php Have no fear, I set up an htaccess redirect so the old URl auto-magically goes to the new one. To incorporate it into the CDB family, I linked the tool to a blog entry, and actually, the “Comments” hypertext goes to a comment field on the post [...]

Alan’s Multipost Bookmarklet Tool

Go, Dog Go http://cogdogblog.com/code/marklet_maker.php About Previously I have described a JavaScript bookmarklet tool I wrote for myseld so I could submit websites to multiple tracking sites. Maybe you too want to be able to do a one click submit to send sites to places like Furl or del.icio.us at the same time. http://cogdogblog.com/code/marklet_maker.php Thus I was inspired to create this tool that allows you to select the ones you want and it will generate the bookmarklet tool for you. Since created, many more bookmarklet tools have been popped online, and I am willing to add them to this list if The tool is one that allows added / annotating a web site to a collection site. The site offers a JavaScript powered bookmark tool that can be dragged to the browser. The tool should be one that extracts title, URL, description, etc from a page in view and passes it [...]
