If you own the paid fluid.app you could make a menu bar app out of Spillo.

Thanks Brett. I stopped using Spillo for the same reason, I didn't like the requirement having the app open to save a quick bookmark.

You're amazing, Brett, but sometimes you work way too hard!

I too desired a Spillo bookmarklet, and I just emailed the developer to ask if they had a URL-handler scheme for it. Within a few hours, he replied to me with the complete definition of the URL-scheme:

Scheme: spillo
Method: bookmark

Query parameters:

url – The post URL, a string

title – The post title, a string

desc – The post description, a string

tags – The post tags, a list of tags, as a string separated by whitespace

unread – The post unread status, 1 or 0

private – The post private status, 1 or 0

So, if you only want to show the bookmark window without populating it, you would use the following URL:

spillo:///bookmark

To show the bookmark window with a given URL you’d do:

spillo:///bookmark?url=google.com

And finally a more complex example:

spillo:///bookmark?url=google.com&title=Google&desc=Google%20homepage&tags=google%20search&unread=1&private=1

Nice. I didn't find the tags option, that will be handy.
