Adding Favorites?

Hey all,

I just thought of something...what about adding a "add to favorites" link on nodes? Then you can click a link in the menu bar or on your profile, it can be public/private and you can navigate through a catalogue of your fav. nodes.

feasable?

meh.

Did you know PerlMonks has a "favorites" feature already? It's called your Personal Nodelet. If you have your Personal Nodelet enabled, then it will have links which:

  1. add the current node to your public scratchpad
  2. add the current node to your private scratchpad
  3. add the current node to your Personal Nodelet
That means you can treat your scratchpad as a kind of "public favorites", if you prefer.

Enable your Personal Nodelet (see node 366609 and node 25185) and I think you will find what you need :)

Note that the Free Nodelet also supports doing this, but requires that you cut'n'paste a small amount of templating (but also gives you lots of freedom to change details about your list of favorites).

For more information and complete examples, see Free Nodelet gets templating features and Free nodelet templates make scratchpads _freer and even Free Nodelet freed (all of which can be found by clicking the ubiquitous Need help?? link and then clicking on the "Free Nodelet" line).

Of course, then you need to perform node 312236. As I mentioned in that thread, I use my scratchpad(s) for this purpose.

The Personal Nodelet stuff it's not so intuitive to be discovered by simply clicking. I discovered it using SuperSearch :-)...
Now i have a lot of links to be readed and a bunch of 'favourites' hahaha (before that i used to save them on a file ...)

Okay, we have 'Add Favourites' at perlmonks, but what if i want to track a node? something like to be registered for receiving a callback for everychange or reply for that node ... it could be an interesting thing ...
Lazyness, i suppose.
