dansup jacky: that is pretty neat, I've been thinking of allowing text on background posts like facebook. Thanks for sharing!

#
jacky definitely!
#
jacky I think there's a way to extract this into an image from a DOM element too

GWG Does anyone ever search through their bookmarks by author? As opposed to source?
#
GWG I am trying to figure out certain things

#
[jeremycherfas] Not in bookmarks in the way I think you are thinking of them. But all the time in my citation manager.
#
GWG And your citation manager is?
#
GWG I am building something new

#
GWG [jeremycherfas]: It might give me ideas
#
[jeremycherfas] Bookends. Mac only. All-singing, all dancing, a precursor to many of the more popular online offerings like Zotero and Mendeley.
#
[jeremycherfas] It stores all the information in separate fields, usually based on one of the accepted bibliographic remplates, and then is able to format the output to meet the very differing requirements of different journals.
#
[jeremycherfas] templates
#
GWG [jeremycherfas]: What features do you like about it?
#
[jeremycherfas] It has built-in online searches of major bibliographic databases. It can extract metadata from PDFs (with a little encouragement). It can import a variety of formats, and search by DOI. But the really important th8ing is the ability to format the output.
#
GWG That made me decide... I need to separate out author name and URL so I can search by them
#
GWG In version 2 maybe I will add books, not just online sources. Although maybe that might be better off as a separate type.
#
GWG I don't want to end up with the same complexity issue.
#
[jeremycherfas] Bookends has a field for category, which includes all the usual things, including books, chapters in edited volumes, conference proceedings, newspaper articles, everything you can think of. And you can add your own.
#
[jeremycherfas] It doesn’t really make much distinction between online and offline.
#
GWG I suppose I will start with name, author information, publish date, categories, featured image, and summary and go from there.
#
GWG First step, get it working,
#
GWG I made it very easy to add new fields
#
[jeremycherfas] That’s a good start. Why do you need featured image?
#
GWG [jeremycherfas]: Thumbnail
#
GWG Makes for good visualization
#
[jeremycherfas] M’kay. Different kinds of bookmarks, I expect.
#
GWG I read a lot of articles online
#
[jeremycherfas] Truth is, I think of a bookmark as something *inside* a book, drawing my attention to a specific passage. But I realise that’s an old-fashioned view.
#
[jeremycherfas] I suppose that’s what I’m doing online, making a mark to point me back to something I have seen before.
#
GWG Yes
#
[jeremycherfas] Which is very different in concept from the bibliographic details of the thing.
#
GWG And I have thousands from the past
#
GWG I have 41000 stored in pinboard
#
[jeremycherfas] And why can’t you leave them there?
#
[jeremycherfas] Or can you?
#
[jeremycherfas] I don’t have nearly that many, and my problem there is tagging. Far too many unique tags.
#
GWG [jeremycherfas]: Same problems no matter where I store them
