Clip from your browser

One click on any page opens the capture form with the URL, the title, and anything you have selected already filled in.

Install

Drag this to your bookmarks bar:

In Chrome and Brave the bookmarks bar is Cmd+Shift+B if you cannot see it. Dragging is the only way to create a bookmarklet in those browsers: pasting javascript: into the address bar is blocked, on purpose, because it is how people get talked into pasting malicious code.

If dragging does not work, make a new bookmark by hand, name it anything, and paste this as the URL:

javascript:(function(){var s=String(window.getSelection()||'').trim().slice(0,600);var u='https://miketatum.com/capture?url='+encodeURIComponent(location.href)+'&title='+encodeURIComponent(document.title)+(s?'&quote='+encodeURIComponent(s):'');window.open(u,'clip','width=620,height=780');})();

Using it

Select a paragraph before clicking and it lands in the quote field. The first time you publish, the form asks once for your capture token and keeps it in that browser.

On a phone, add the capture form to your Home Screen instead. iOS does not allow bookmarklets in the share sheet.
