Bookmarklets

After doing some research these are the Bookmarklets I have chosen to use, drag the link in the left column to your toolbar (View | Toolbar | Bookmarks Toolbar in Firefox) to add to your toolbar for quick access.

Bookmarklet Note
Email selection Opens an email with the page title as the subject and the selected text as the body
Google translate Translates open page to English
Send gmail Opens compose window in your gmail account
toread This is for toread.cc which emails you the page you want to read, send it to your gmail account and you can have a filter there to show the toread list. You can do the same with bookmarks of course, but I find sites tend to get lost there, having a ready available list in gmail means I might actually read it!
WatchThatPage Adds the current page to your list in watchthatpage which send you an email when it's updated.
Easy Read When you come across a page you can't read because of some nasty colour clashes click on this and the page will be srtipped of it's colour.
co.mments Track online blogs, forum posts, etc that you are interested in with co.mments.
Video download Download video in YouTube, etc
Blackr.net If you are viewing individual photos on Flickr (not slideshow) this gets rid of everything else, ideal.
