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](http://google.com "google.com"){rel="nofollow"
target="_blank"}

And finally a more complex example:

spillo:///bookmark?url=[google.com](http://google.com "google.com"){rel="nofollow"
target="_blank"}&title=Google&desc=Google%20homepage&tags=google%20search&unread=1&private=1

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