Development Bookmarklets: Thanks for Si
mon Willison for pointing us at this amazing page of
bookmarklets that let you play with the CSS and JavaScript of any
page.
These bookmarklets let you see how a web page is coded
without digging through the source, debug problems in web pages
quickly, and experiment with CSS or JS without editing the actual
page.
Some killer bookmarklets:
- Computed styles. As near as I can tell, this one lets you
click on an element and displays the styles applied to it both
directly and inherited from higher up the cascade.
- Generate source. Displays the entire DOM tree as formatted
text.
- View variables. Displays all JavaScript variables and functions
in scope on the page.
- Shell. Gives you a JavaScript shell in the current page
scope.
Great, great tools here. Incidentally, these are only the "Web
Development" bookmarklets. There are hundreds of
bookmarklets on the site. Some of them are jaw-droppingly good,
and worthy of their own post.
If you don't know how a bookmarklet works, just pick one you like,
then drag it to the bookmark bar on your browser. Find a page where
you want to use it, and click the bookmark.

And as always, Jon
Udell provides more help:
"I could have switched LibraryLookup over to this technique, but
never did because it only works with Amazon. I've always liked the
idea that LibraryLookup can also work with isbn.nu and All Consuming and other book
sites. (It'd be cool if they all emulated Amazon's metadata pattern,
but they don't.) Still, in the context of this excellent new WorldCat
hack, I thought the non-ISBN-dependent solution might be useful. So
here it is:

Most excellent - nice work, everyone! Another ringing endorsement
for open, web services-based back-ends for library catalogs.

Password Generating Bookmarklet
Password Generating Bookmarklet
09/07/2004 10:24 AMPassword generator
bookmarklet: This is pretty brilliant. Boo
kmarklets are the neatest things.
I wrote a bookmarklet to make up passwords for me. It asks for my
master password, which is all I have to remember, and uses it to make
a unique password for each site. It even types the password into any
password fields on the current page for me, whether I'm registering
for a new account or logging in on a subsequent visit. [...]
How does it work? It gets the hostname from the page's URL and
mixes it together with your personal master password using a little
cryptographic magic we call MD5. It will always get the same result if
given that hostname and master password, but will never get that
result if either changes. (Well, once in a few billion times it
might.)
Just don't lose sleep at night worrying about MD5 cracks.

As has been
widely noticed
in recent days, Nic Wolff's
password generator is a
brilliant hack. It hashes a passphrase with the domain name of the
site you're on and fills in the password field on the page. Each
site's password is unique; you need only remember a single passphrase;
the passphrase is only handled locally. Sweet.

The bookmarklet solution to the password
problem
The bookmarklet solution to the password
problem
09/06/2004 02:38 PMAnyone who makes heavy use of the internet has run in to
the password problem: dozens of user accounts on sites with varying
degrees of trustability, leading to an unmanageable proliferation of
username and password combinations. The temptation is to use the same
combination on multiple sites, but doing so opens you up to the
horrifying prospect of a security flaw in one site compromising al of
your other accounts.
I was burnt by this a few years ago: a small community
forum on which I was a member was cracked, and my account was then
used to log in to another larger forum to which I had administrator
acccess. Thankfully no permanent damage was done, but it taught me a
valuable lesson in password security. Since then I've maintained a
number of different combinations each with a different level of
associated trust: if my account on Joe's random forum is cracked it
won't lead to the compromise of my Amazon account!
Even different tiers of passwords aren't ideal though, and
that's why Nic Wolff's Password generator
bookmarklet (via 43 Folders) has
me so excited. Nic's bookmarklet pops up a JavaScript prompt box
asking for your "master" password, then MD5s it against the domain of
the current login page and inserts the resulting hash in to any
password fields on the page. A single password can be used for dozens
of sites without any risk of a compromise of one account affecting the
others. It's brilliant.
There are a couple of minor flaws in the bookmarklet: the
master password prompt is in plain text rather than masking your input
with asterisks, and the bookmarklet could leave you high and dry if a
site changes the domain on which their login form resides without you
noticing. The first could be solved by extending the bookmarklet to
append a "master password" field to the page using the DOM, while a solution to the
second would require some kind of server-side store of the domains at
which the initial accounts were created.
Quibbles aside, it's an ingenious solution to a pervasive
problem.

I know this going to sound silly -- but now I **know** Feedster
works. A friend of mine just bought an iPod and they were asking
me about the FM radio adapter. I know I saw one talked about in
the blog-o-sphere recently so I ran a query for iPod and came up with the result. How damn cool. It
really is like searching either your short term memory or searching
conversations you just happened to listen in on.
A lot of times developers don't actually use the things they
build. Or use them peripherally at best. It really is cool
when they work and you have that "ah ha" moment.
Infoworld, Feedster, RSS
Infoworld, Feedster, RSS
03/19/2003 10:27 PMInfoworld on Weblogs
Wow. I had no idea this was going online yesterday just a few
hours after I spoke to her (Cathleen is the new Infoworld editor for
blogs for Infoworld):
Unlike
typical Web search tools such as Google that index Web content at the
page level, RSS-focused search engines index RSS feeds and do so more
frequently and at a finer level of granularity. "There is a huge need
for this capability in blogs. Blogs are heavily nested and interlinked. We take
that data stream and go all the way with it. We are getting the whole
information feed, storing it, and indexing it," Johnson said. more..
.
Interestingly their own search engine doesn't even have this
indexed. Link /
Picture. So I went and looked for their RSS feed using Syndic8 and
went to add it to Feedster and .... it was already in
our database. I went and checked using our "Drill" function to
look at all posts from InfoWorld and there it was.
Their search results, unfortunately, aren't very good though since
their RSS is just article titles, not full content. Hrm....
Thanks
to Sentence & Solas who blogged this before I did. Much
appreciated.
