adding google bookmarks from ipad/iphone safari

Just worked this out based on the tweet this options in tweetings for tweeting from inside safari.

if you create a new bookmark to any page then edit the address of the bookmark to contain the following:

javascript:window.location='http:///www.google.com/bookmarks/mark?op=edit&output=popup&bkmk='+window.location+'&title='+document.title

change the title of the bookmark to something like "add to google bookmarks"

now when you want to add a page to google bookmarks you can just press the new bookmark and you will be presented with the add a google bookmark form, complete this and press add and you are done.

press back a few times to get back to the page you were viewing.

update: just found a similar way of doing it that was already posted on a forum which works better, see it here

RF Tools VSWR+ / GPS2CAD

A few weeks ago I released my first Application onto the Android Marketplace. I thought that i would get a few downloads but not many, the application I published is a very basic calculator useful only to RF aerials engineers. But at time of writing I have had 98 downloads with around 50% of those still installed and active.
This does make me want to carry on writing apps and releasing them. I have a few tweaks to make then i plan to release my GPS2CAD app and see if anyone can make use of it. it is based on the google notepad tutorial code but allows you to take points and then then export them as a dxf file for use with CAD software. I have posted about it before, i when i wrote it i was excited about using the GPS to create CAD data but over estimated the accuracy of the GPS in the phone, so i will release it and see if i get any feedback if i do, i may carry on working on it.
