Yes that’s it

btw I have that bookmarklet too but I don’t usually need to have smaller URLs.
Regardless it’s very good at what it does. Great work Nuno.

Levi, instapaper doesn’t add tags or notes.
What Luis wants is something like http://smallr.net/buttons/ bookmarklet as alternative.

I don’t know if I was clear about it but I wouldn’t want to _force_ anyone to use a popup bookmarklet… I’d just like to have it as an option.

And yeah, fullread is awesome!

Your troubles with the 30+ open tabs resemble mine too! I had the same problem! Switching to NetNewsWire and using their tabs helped, but I’m moving to FullRead too! Gotta love Nuno and his awesome work… and supporting it is the only thing we can do!

Abraço

PS: I have mixed feelings about your suggestion on a popup window… :S Popups = FAIL… But I understand what you’re saying!
Nuno, check Instantpaper’s bookmarklet!

I see, that reminds me about a mobile edition.
I will work on that, but the firefox extensions will have that functionality.
Thanks for the suggestions.

Yeah I use that button, I just prefer popup buttons (avoids loading and reloading the page).

The second suggestion was poorty explained. If you right click->properties your fullread.com/home bookmark in firefox you’ll see a “Load in the sidebar” checkbox. Check it. Now click it. It will open the page in the sidebar. It works fine but because of the small width it’s not “perfect”. Some webapps have mobile versions or there are official/third-party widgets that make it better.
Still, few people use the FF sidebar so it isn’t a feature that will have a lot of requests.

On http://fullread.com/buttons/ you have the bookmarklet. It doesn’t open a new window, but after saving or canceled it returns to the visited page.

In the second suggestion, I don’t know if I understand what you’re asking for.
But if you point to http://fullread.com/home it redirects to your account queue.

Since you asked… could you make an “add to fullread” bookmarklet that opens in a popup (like the one from google bookmarks)?

Also a more eccentric suggestion would be making a fullread user homepage that works well in the firefox sidebar

Thank you for the post.
Right now I’m thinking about a Firefox extension.
Any other suggestions are welcome.
