I’ve been using Delivr.com<\/a> since launched in December.\u00a0 It’s so powerful and does so many things that it’s hard to summarize.\u00a0 I covered it in depth here<\/a>.<\/p>\n One use of Delivr is as a mobile aware short URL service with one-click posting to many social networking and bookmarking sites. Supported services include\u00a0 Twitter, Facebook, MySpace, Google Bookmarks, Jaiku, Delicious, Digg, Reddit, Plaxo and Delivr’s own micro-blogging service.<\/p>\n That’s not all though, using the same one click iterface, you can send Delivr links by email or SMS\u00a0 or generate a QRcode.<\/p>\n Delivr is also a social bookmarking and micro-blogging service in it’s own right. If you create a free account at Delivr.com, every Delivr you create will be stored in your time line.\u00a0 You can view and manage all your Delivrs, see analytics showing how many times each has been shared or viewed, follow other Delivr users to add their Delivrs to your timeline and see who is following you.<\/p>\n A new Delivr feature lets you tie third party analytics from TigTags or Percent Mobile to your Delivr account to get even more detailed information on the traffic passing through Delivr.<\/p>\n While Delivr has always been mobile aware, it hasn’t been particularly easy to create a Delivr from your mobile phone because there wasn’t a bookmarklet that worked in mobile browsers.<\/p>\n Bookmarklets<\/a>, which are supported by Opera Mini, Opera Mobile, Mobile IE and Blazer, let you send page meta-data including URL, description and keywords to web services with a single click.\u00a0 This lets you effortlessly do things like\u00a0 post a URL to Delicious, invoke Google translate on the current page or use a mobile service to transcode and download a Flash video in mobile friendly format. Bookmarklets do so much to make mobile browsing easier and more productive.\u00a0 They are especially useful on phones that don’t support copy and paste.<\/p>\n Delivr has a bookmarklet, but it’s 466 bytes of complex JavaScript that invokes a transparent pop up. It’s too much for Opera Mini and Mobile to handle. I haven’t tried it in PIE and Blazer but I doubt it would work with those browsers either.<\/p>\n Yesterday Delivr released an enhancement designed to make it easier to use in any browser.\u00a0 You can now create a Delivr by typing\u00a0 “delivr.com\/<\/span>” to the left of the URL in your browser’s location bar and hiting “return<\/span>“. So if you wanted to Delivr this post, which has the URL,\u00a0 https:\/\/wapreview.com\/3839, you would go to the browser’s address bar and change it to delvr.com\/<\/strong>https:\/\/wapreview.com\/3839.\u00a0 This works well in desktop browsers and in mobile browsers that let you modify the current URL such as Opera Mini 4.2.<\/p>\n I nice side effect of this enhancement is that it exposes a new RESTful<\/a> API that makes it trivial to create a bookmarklet that will work in any of the mobile browsers that support bookmarklets.\u00a0 Here’s the bookmarklet:<\/p>\n javascript:location.href=%27http:\/\/delivr.com\/%27+location.href<\/p>\n Paste or enter that into a bookmark.\u00a0 When you want to Delivr the page you are currently viewing,\u00a0 just click on the bookmark. The Delivr landing page, shown in the screenshot above, will load.\u00a0 From there you can share the link on Twitter, Jaiku or Delicious, send it by email or SMS, or create a flyer or QR Code.<\/p>\n If you’re using Opera Mini it’s even easier to create the bookmark.\u00a0 You don’t even need to\u00a0 copy and paste or key anything in. Just visit my Opera mini bookmarkets page at o.yeswap.com<\/a> and follow the instructions.\u00a0 Their are 31 mobile friendly bookmarks on o.yeswap.com. Delivr is in the Tools<\/a> section.<\/p>\n Related Posts<\/em>: I’ve been using Delivr.com since launched in December.\u00a0 It’s so powerful and does so many things that it’s hard to summarize.\u00a0 I covered it in depth here.
