5 Recommended Bookmarklets To Simplify Tedious Tasks A bookmarklet is a piece of code saved as a bookmark. When you click it, instead of just taking you to a bookmarked website, it performs an action (which may include taking you to another website, but does not have to do that). Here are 5 recommended bookmarklets to boost your productivity by helping you instantly subscribe to, read, tweet, share and translate webpages. [To use the bookmarklets, simply add them to your bookmarks bar. 1. Here is a known scenario – you visit a cool blog and want to subscribe to it. 2. The ZAP reader bookmarklet opens a new window where it flashes text at high speed (text which you previously marked in a website). It’s a good idea to use a speed that you can read relatively easily when the text is important and you have to completely understand it. 3. The Bit.ly bookmarklet is the most useful way I know to share links through Twitter. If you think about it, Bit.ly lets you measure the effectiveness of your tweets. 4. 5. Image credit: vramak

Lynx Information Gmail / any alternative way to make tasks from emails? cek1227 says: By stealing ideas from many other people, I created a bookmarklet that works in Chrome, FF, and Opera. When I have an email open in GMail, I just click the bookmarklet, which pops up the RTM mobile task add dialog, with the task title prefilled to be the email title, and the URL preset to be the email itself. I also have default presets for list, location, etc. If you are not logged into the mobile RTM page, the first time you run this, you'll have to log in, and then select the bookmarklet again to get the task to fill in. Then, when I'm going through my RTM tasks, on this task, I just click the URL and the email pops up. One side benefit is that the add-task window stays open, so you can manage many emails, one after the other. To create the bookmarklet, on your bookmarklet bar, just add a bookmarklet (depends on which browser), and the put this script in the URL field. Obviously, you'll need to modify some of the presets in order to suit your own RTM habits.

Fluid - Free Site Specific Browser for Mac OS X Leopard 9 Bookmarklets To Instantly View Your To-Do Tasks on Remember The Milk There’s also an officially supported Remember The Milk bookmarklet (that loads what you see in the screenshot) that lets you add tasks with one-click, but there’s currently no bookmarklet to just load your task list quickly. Sure, you can open a new tab and head to the RTM website, but a mini-app such as a bookmarklet could easily help you get to your tasks a lot faster. Firefox users can open up the RTM iGoogle gadget in the sidebar, but Google Chrome users don’t have that much luck with a sidebar. There’s probably a lot of desktop applications and even extensions that could let you open up your task list. I tested the bookmarklets in Chrome, Firefox, Opera, Flock, IE (just for fun since I have the portable versions). To get the bookmarklets, just drag to your Bookmarks Bar (Chrome), Bookmarks toolbar (Firefox) or Personal Bar (Opera), Favorites toolbar (Flock).
