Pinboard bookmarklet for AO3 works

[flamebyrd]

I edited the default Pinboard bookmarklet (the button you put in your browser bookmarks to let you quickly add links to Pinboard) so that it will grab the tags and summary from AO3 and include those in the Pinboard tags/description.

Would anybody who uses Pinboard for their bookmarks rather than AO3 be interested in that if I posted it?

I made a generator for the bookmarklet to allow people to choose which tags to include and so on. http://random.fangirling.net/fun/ao3/bookmarklet.html

(I tried to do the same for Delicious but it doesn't look like I can pass tags to it.)

I discovered an entertaining new failure mode. For a work like http://archiveofourown.org/works/575365/ (Jeeves & Wooster, tagged as if Bertie were doing the tagging himself, completely delightful and containing about a hundredweight of cucumbers), the valiant attempt to include all tags results in a woeful "Request URI is too long".

I'm planning to add a bookmarklet that does *not* attempt to pull in ALL THE TAGS, but if you can figure out how to make it cap the tags when it's going to overflow...

Ahahaha, wow, those are some amazing tags. I'll see if I can figure out what the upper limit on the URI length is - IIRC it varies across browsers, but maybe if I take the lowest...
