Stavros, this is beautiful. I think this might turn out to be one of those things which is so simple, yet so effective that once I start using it I wonder how I managed without it for so long.
Obvious feature request is to import my contacts list.
One little 'bug': I added my own email address through the 'Your contacts' page with the nickname 'me'. Then to test the bookmarklet, I shared a link with myself. The email I got said "Hello! me has sent you a link!". I guess you want to replace 'me' with my email address or name?
The link you email is not the original link I shared but a link to a page on your site, which then links to the original link. Please link straight to the site if possible. Presumably you are not looking for pageviews with this project ;-)
Good luck and keep us posted!
- StavrosK 16y agoThank you for your feedback! To answer your observations: About importing contacts, I think you don't need all your contacts on it, but I guess you might only import a few, so I'll add it! The site uses your nickname because that's what you ostensibly want to see when you get a link, "Stavros has sent you a link!" rather than the email address. You just stumbled on a weird corner case :) To clarify, the site uses the nickname the recipient has set, so your friends will see "revorad has sent you a link" (or whatever each person calls you) rather than "me". The email you get has both a link to the site and the original link, a bit further below. I hope you find the tool useful, thanks again!
- revorad 16y agoAh sorry I missed the original link in the email.
