Description
PloneBookmarklets is a simple product that installs a document_actioninto your Plone site. Bookmarklets allow a reader to bookmark your content to many different bookmark and news sharing sites like del.icio.us, digg, etc.
This product was written using the TagCloud product as a starting point: http://www.plone.org/products/tagcloud
As of version 0.5, the code base has been refactored to supprot Zope3 Views. With this architecture in place, the rendering of the bookmarklets is highly customizable, if the default document_action is not desired.

Choose PloneBookmarklets (check its checkbox) and click the 'Install' button.
You may have to empty your browser cache to see the effects of the product installation/uninstallation.
Installation will place a document_action called 'Add Bookmarklet' to your portal_actions, as well as a portal_bookmarklets tool in the instance, which allows for further configuration of the tool.
Uninstall -- This can be done from the same management screen. Uninstallation will remove the document_action.
