For those who don't know, a bookmarklet is just a "fancy" link that you install in your web-browser toolbar, usually by dragging it there. (In IE you must right click it, select "Add to Favorites" and then save it in the "Links" folder.) When clicked, bookmarklets do something with the currently viewed document.

Install it, and head over to Amazon.com to try it out. Of course, you'll want to make sure that the affiliate links it creates refer to your Amazon Associate ID and not mine.
To create your own customized bookmarklet, use this tool here.
Happy linking! And remember, tipping is easy with Tipjoy.
