A smarter bookmarklet for Pinboard.in; wraps selected text in <blockquote> tags, keeps variables out of the global scope, supports filling tags from rel="tag" markup in the page, and titles from hAtom entry titles.
(function() {
// Change `silent` to true to invoke the promptless, self-closing
// version of the bookmarklet.
var silent = false;
var url = location.href;
var title = document.title;
// Look for a single hAtom entry on the page, and iff one is found, extract
// the entry-title in place of the document title:
