Source drop
This isn’t a great check-in, gohome has dotfiles and binary files checked in, and betterbookmarks needs the tagsoup jar but I’ll fix that tomorrow when I’m not completely exhausted.
http://betterbookmarks.googlecode.com
Also, none of the source is commented or logical, planning to clean it up this weekend.

BetterBookmarks, android app #2
Another fun-with-shortcuts app, this one for creating iphone-style shortcuts.
It even tries to do some intelligent scaling of favicos.
manual UI:
Finished product (facebook and google are BetterBookmarks shortcuts):
Pro-tips:

Go Home
I’m sad that android doesn’t have home screen widgets, but the shortcuts, as proved by anycut, can be pretty cool.
Go Home is an app that lets you add a home screen shortcut to get directions from your current location (gps or cell tower) and automatically route you to the address associated with that shortcut.
There are currently only 4 icons bundled with this (but that’s better than the web browser bookmarks support), but I think they cover work, home, significant other, and anything else. Enjoy. Also, apologies for the drop-down widget being so hideous.
I will update this app if google maps on andoird gets transit support so that you can specify the transportation mode as well.
To use, either long press on an empty part of the home screen, or, from the home screen, go to menu->add. Click “Go Home”
Fill in this screen:
Done!
