Carrick is determined to ride the bus to work this summer
Try out 43 Things (read all 8 entries…)
Worth doing!
43 Things tag search bookmarklet — 3 years ago
I created a bookmarklet for searching 43 Things tags. You can highlight a word on a web page, then click the bookmarklet to invoke the search. It’s quite excellent that the Robots have included Flickr and del.icio.us tag search results.
Since 43 Things does some wicked things to the bookmarklet URL, here’s the code:
javascript:e = %22%22 + (window.getSelection ? window.getSelection() : document.getSelection ? document.getSelection() : document.selection.createRange().text);if (!e) e = prompt(%22You didn't select any text. Enter a tag:%22, %22%22);if (e!=null) location=%22http://www.43things.com/tag/%22+ escape(e); void 0You can create a new empty bookmark in your browser of choice (I recommend Firefox) and then enter the above javascript into the “location” field. Have fun.
Update: I posted the bookmarklet on this external web page for drag-and-drop ease.
