Yet another browser extension for capturing notes - LinkRemark

[Maxim Nikulin]

I am experimenting with a browser add-on that is intended
to be a bridge between browser and Org mode.
In the family of Org mode capture helpers it is among ones
that adds web page metadata to the note.
Source code repository: https://github.com/maxnikulin/linkremark

In my notes.org file, I collect all kind of snippets, knowledge, ideas, 
how-tos, and such stuff.

It is not really ready for the wild web, though
I believe it is already possible to get general impression
and even use it for pages where specially crafted data
are rather unlikely. Due to early development stage,
there is no stability promise yet.

The extension has not published to catalogues of browser extensions.
Signed version for Firefox could be found in "releases" section
on GitHub: 
https://github.com/maxnikulin/linkremark/releases/download/v0.1/linkremark-0.1-fx.xpi
For chrome/chromium it could be loaded as unpacked
extension. Just clone the code and create a symlink
to =manifest-chrome.json= named =manifest.json=.

=README.org= file contains a bit more details,
so visit [[https://github.com/maxnikulin/linkremark]]
or just clone this repository.

The mail list is quite noisy last couple of months,
so, please, do not post lengthy proposals how to integrate
this extension to everything in response.

The gift is crafted quite roughly, glue has not fully cured,
so do not be surprised if you are stuck trying to adapt it
for your habits.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
