Share bookmarks #77

Closed loomchild closed 8 months ago

Generate a link to list of my bookmarks, with IDs embedded. The Receiver can also favourite them if they want.

I can promote this feature by sharing my bookmarks from last year as to be watched.

Technically could be a ... button in bookmarks tab.

I would love this - I was literally looking for this feature when creating my list of bookmarked sessions for FOSDEM today, and would love to find a way to share it.

A possible stopgap

However, just being able to download the bookmarks as a JSON file would be a really helpful start, as it would allow anyone to share them elsewhere, without needing to think too hard about how access to them is being managed.

I was able to pull out the existing listing of events as an experiment by using the web inspector in my browser, but even doing this, I realise I have no URL to link to on the FOSDEM site, nor any shared ID (the url could possibly serve as this ID, but I don't know how often it might change)

@mrchrisadams Thanks for posting this. I will try to figure something out, like a public page with your bookmarks that you can send to anyone in the coming days. The URLs to events on FOSDEM site and in Sojourner are stable, event IDs shouldn't change.

I have implemented a simple share feature. You can access it from Bookmarks page, by clicking on the share icon in top-right corner. Please let me know what do you think.

HAHAHAH! THIS IS AWESOME - this is such cool hack!

I love the use of GET params to list the bookmarked events like this- it's simple and effective, but also very clever and webby 💯 .

I'm very happy for this to be closed, as it lets me share a link for others to see the events I'm interested in, and decide to go or not. Bravo!
