Link log

Do I need a link log, I wonder? Like those ones that Simon and Mark have? I tend not to bother just doing a “look at this link” sort of post any more, because it takes more time than it’s worth, but with something that was designed to be only that I’d lash up a JavaScript bookmarklet that asked for a title and pithy comment and posted the current URL to the linklog, making it very easy to say “look at this” when I’m looking at it rather than later when I can’t be bothered.

  1. If you do decide to start a linklog, del.icio.us is well worth a look - the linglogging process is quick and simple via a bookmarklet, and it has a REST API, so you can get the links onto your weblog in a variety of ways.

    Goodness, I sound like an advert - it’s that good.

  2. I have a bookmarklet that does exactly what you subscribe, and it’s the best thing I’ve added to my blog in ages. I’ve only had blogmarks for two and a half weeks and I’ve already collected 130 of them! You really won’t regret it if you build one.
