Scoble mentioned a tool like this a while back, but here's a specific implementation I need. If I knew more about Mozilla development and Perl (for MovableType) I could probably build it.

You'll notice I have a "BulletBlog" down the right side of the page. This is a list of links or stuff I think is interesting or I want to read later. The current way of adding to it is:

1. Go to the page I want to link to.
2. Open MovableType in another tab, and start a new BulletBlog post.
3. Copy the URL from the page I want to link to.
4. Paste it into the BulletBlog post.
5. Create the HTML link code around it: <a href="[link]"></a>
6. Copy the article title from the page I want to link to, or make a title up.
7. Paste it into the BulletBlog post's link.
8. Select a category for the post.
8. Submit the post.

It's a lot of steps for a relatively simple thing to do. I'm pretty much just bookmarking this page on my BulletBlog. Here's what I'd like to be able to to with Mozilla:

1. Go to the page I want to link to.
2. (Optional) Select some text that I want to make the BulletBlog link text.
3. Hit a shortcut key that opens a dialog box with a drop down and a text box containing the selected text.
4. Select the category in the dropdown box.
5. Edit the link text as necessary.
6. Click OK to add to the BulletBlog.

The link for the page is automatically grabbed for you, so that's one less thing to do. As well you don't have to log right into the MovableType system to make the post.

I was thinking it could be done with some Mozilla development on the client side and some understanding of the Perl in MovableType on the server side, but I just remembered how MT does trackbacks (with the bookmarked popup window) and this type of thing may be able to be done in the same way .... hmmm ....
