'Share This' Button for Atheist Forums

'Share This' Button for Atheist Forums
Someone needs to get into the Google Chrome API and find out how to make a 'Share This' button for the Atheist Forums. I see a lot of posts that are a copy paste of an URL address and a little note about the link. Having to copy a URL, go to the Forums, find the Forum you want to post in, click New Thread... is tedious. Someone should make a javascript bookmark as Google Reader did or a whole extension/addon for Firefox or Google Chrome.

Google Reader Example
   

Upon clicking Google Reader's javascript loaded bookmark while on the tab with The Bottom Feeder blog on an article about threats against copyright infringement, the above popup appears allowing me to share a snippet of http://jeff-vogel.blogspot.com/2010/04/y...-hell.html# and write a note on the topic.

I see the Share Popup Menu for Atheist Forums looking like this
   
i forgot to add an input box for the title of the post. oh well. I have no knowledge of javascript or any browser APIs.

Yeah I know you did. I removed it since I know JavaScript and what you posted was specific to Google only.

http://atheistforums.com have a bar along the bottom of the page to handle theirs. I'm thinking of doing something similar.

It is called a javascript:// link with a whole bunch of method calls to some part of the posting API.

Fuck, it could be the normal "New Thread" link with most GET variables filled with a few Javascript here.page.whatever(); things.

The one thing you do not want to do is have your software emulate atheistforums.com. It's awful. The way that board software operates is the main reason I recommend this one to friends.
