long walks on the beach, but not...

...as much as he loves a good puppy barbecue.

God, I haven't put anything up here in ages!  Trust that I probably wouldn't be here reacquainting myself with hyperlinks and <gasp> italics if Mercury in retrograde weren't making it so difficult for me to proselytize the fawesomeness of the bookmarklet.  I mean, let's face it: there are very few things in life more fawesome than a good bookmarklet.  Million percent serious.

Let's get down to business.  Last week, all the Twitter dorkuses (of which I am absolutely a wannabe) were talking about how Facebook was going to "take over the internet" with some ridiculous Like button.  Actually, the quote that pushed me over the edge was that Facebook was going to make the entire internet its "tributary" (whatever the eff that means).

I still haven't really thought through the implications of this newfangled Like button, but I'm definitely over the idea that all those people were smoking it when they thinking the same thing Mr. Siegler so curiously expressed.  Which, if I'm guessing right, is that Facebook wins.  Game over.  Facebook: internet.  Google: zero.

Anyway, drag this -- Like  -- to your bookmark bar.  When you get it up there, right click where it says "Like," select edit, and delete everything before the question mark, including the "http://" part.  (In Firefox, click on Properties instead of Edit.)  While you're up there, might as well go grab some other kick ass bookmarklets like this juicy little surprise.  That's right.  Hit it over and over and over again.  Then one more time for good measure.  You know you love it.

You're welcome.
