This looked like a good first project for me, so I went ahead and made a Chrome extension:
BookmarkWords (I know, creative name - wait till you see the logo ;).
To install it, click on this link and download the crx
file. Then, go to chrome://extensions
on your computer, check Enable Developer Mode
and drag the crx
file there.
The instructions on how to use it will open up when you install it, but it's really simple:
- you right click a selection (or press Alt+B)
- click 'bookmark word'
You can change the keyboard shortcut by clicking Keyboard Shortcuts
at the bottom of chrome://extensions
.
It works by saving the selection, so it can do multiple words / phrases.
I hope to add a definition or a link to the definition soon, but for now, this does what you want!
If there are any good designers out there, I'd be happy if you wanted to create a logo that actually looks good, design a good color scheme, or anything design related! ;p (I'm not the most creative of people :)
You can see the project on GitHub and if you do notice something wrong, or want to fix it, please do :)
