Bookmarklets

Bookmarklet is a small computer application that can be stored in your bookmarks to create functionalities while you visit webpages. For example, a bookmarklet can display in a new window all images of the webpage you are viewing, or can be used to take notes from a page, or send page contents to your email, etc.

Here you can view some useful bookmarklets, add them to your browser and also edit and create new bookmarklets.

    Thanks - because of the way it works (inlining the linked files rather than creating a new page) this "linked images" bookmarklet works perfectly in Chrome.
