UPDATE: The developer of the site has since taken the site down after I had already written the article. Thanks to everyone who sent emails and posted comments letting me know!

When the iPhone first came out there were no third-party applications allowed, and as a result users had to resort to "web apps" as a way to quickly access the tools they used the most. Apple tried to make this a little more convenient by letting them bookmark sites on the home screen, but in the end all that bookmark really did was open a new tab in Safari.

When you go to a website you may see a font that looks interesting and sparks some curiosity as to what font type was used. There are all kinds of web developer tools that make finding this info pretty easy, but all you really need is the WhatFont bookmarklet. When you run the bookmarklet you'll be able to click on any of the text on the page you're viewing to see more details about it.

Most mobile browsers are not geared towards doing developer-related things like viewing the source code of a page. There's a nice bookmarklet, however, that will get you this functionality without too much trouble.

Welcome to the WrapUp by CyberNet. This is a collection of news stories, downloads, and tips that we have collected over the last few days, but never got around to writing about.

It's not often that I come across a bookmarklet that I'll use everyday, but in the last few days PageZipper has become an unbelievable tool in my daily arsenal.

One of the things that still surprises me is that Google has not released any way to create HTML signatures for emails in Gmail. As a result there have been a descent number of Greasemonkey scripts for Firefox that give users the chance to automatically insert HTML signatures into an email, but for some of you a simple bookmarklet might be all you need.

Win; Mac; Linux If you have ever switched to a new operating system you know how tricky it can be to find certain applications to replace the ones that you had. That's why today we wanted to point out five excellent BitTorrent solutions that each run on Windows, Mac, and Linux.

There have been numerous occasions where I've been to a site and it worked just fine, but a few minutes later I go back and it appears to be down. Then I sit an wonder if it's my computer or if the site really is down. Usually I'll send Ryan to whichever site it was to see if it worked for him and if it doesn't work, then I know it wasn't just me.

We previously wrote about a free online PDF reader called Samuraj Data that is so darn simple that it's hard not to love it. There's no Flash required and no fancy graphics, just point it to the PDF file you want to view and it will do the rest. Starting tomorrow there will be a new kid on the block, and it comes straight from the creators of BugMeNot.

Ever since Facebook apps launched, one of my biggest pet-peeves has been all of the darn app requests I receive.  It's annoying to say the least, and the worst part about it all is that there is no easy way to ignore them all with one click.  For each individual request, I must click "ignore" over and over again.

There was a lot of excitement when we wrote about the Greasemonkey script that could be used to switch between multiple Gmail accounts. At that time Thilak commented about a Firefox extension that basically accomplished the same task. With it you create user profiles that you can switch between, and it uses a different set of cookies for each of the profiles.

One of the most valuable pieces of data your browser can hold are your bookmarks. For some people it's not only important to access your bookmarks no matter where you're at, but also from whatever browser you are using. That's why today we are taking a look at some different ways you'll be able to sync bookmarks between the different browsers.

I've seen several sites writing about this Greasemonkey script which can be used to reveal the destination address of TinyURL's. That's cool and all, but I don't want another script that has to scan site that I visit when I only come across a few TinyURL's each week. Not only that, but the script only works in Firefox.

Like many of you, I use bookmarklets on a daily basis to complete tasks a bit faster. Many of them offer features that normally require Firefox extensions to do, and I am one of those people that try to minimize the number of extensions I use.

As websites continue to become more and more AJAXified I believe that bookmarklets are going to become a larger driving force. Some of you may not be familiar with bookmarklets, so I was trying to think of a good way I could explain them. When I stumbled upon the Wikipedia article I thought it couldn't be said any better:
