More one-click goodness: GmailThis!

Okay. First there was BlogThis! Then there were single-click bookmarklets to add a page to del.icio.us. Now there is GmailThis! – a bookmarklet that allows one-click access to composing via GMail:

GmailThis! is an easy way to make a Gmail email without visiting mail.google.com. Once you add the GmailThis! link to your browser’s toolbar, emailing will be a snap. Or rather, a click. Clicking GmailThis! creates a mini-interface to Gmail prepopulated with a link to the web page you are visiting, as well as any text you have highlighted on that page. Add additional text if you wish and then email or save as draft from within GmailThis!

Firefox: Best product of 2005 (so far)!

Awesome! PC World has picked Mozilla Firefox as the best product of 2005 (so far). And who am I to disagree? Of course, I’ve been using Firefox since back in it’s Phoenix days. The little browser that could has grown up but stayed slim and trim. Kudos to the Firefox team!

There are some other interesting products on PC World’s 100 Best Products of 2005 list, including Gmail (damned right!), Ubuntu (no thanks, I’ll pass), and Half-Life 2.
