New bookmarklet ๐Ÿ”–:

// Name this so it's quick to autocomplete  
// in the URL bar, like "Paywall be gone".  
javascript:(function(){window.open('<https://archive.today/'+encodeURIComponent(window.location.href)>);})();  

Thanks, @paul for documenting how to use bookmarklets on Android Chrome: https://paul.kinlan.me/use-bookmarklets-on-chrome-on-android/.

@tomayac makes me think there would be a very popular site of bookmarklets.

Dipped a toe into a standards discussion and I remain convinced that it's not a world for me.

I wish we lived in a world where standards work was done by a wide, diverse, and open community rather than exactly the sort of technologist who loves to bikeshed.

It's such important work, and uniquely creates opportunities for amazing large-scale cooperation to happen. Too often, though, it's a place for insecure people to build little fiefdoms. ๐Ÿ˜ข

@blaine when I was working on Web Intents, I so wanted to be in the spec space. But I really struggled for similar reasons to what you mentioned.

@blaine there were certainly a lot of other reasons why it didn't work out. But I certainly struggled on the spec side.

Very proud of all the team has done over the last year to get ready for IO.

I hear AI is a thing now! :D

Check out some of the announcements for web @ IO this year. https://developer.chrome.com/blog/web-at-io24

@raymondcamden it's a fair question.

For this demo app, this was the correct answer given that "we own" the API.

I felt at the time that it was clear that the header overrides was temporary and shows the solution that you would apply to the backend.

I think where the keynote script maybe fell down was that to make the script work we changed it from a site "we built and own" to "I'm exploring this site"
