In a way, interesting, on the other hand I already have the "post to YC" bookmarklet installed.

Thanks! My problem is not being able to find a discussion that already exists. The "post to YC" bookmarklet would create a duplicate submission, so I needed something slightly different.

I don't think it creates a duplicate submission. If the site was already submitted, "Post to YC" amounts to an upvote instead.

like it. Quite useful. How about you open a new tab with the discussion thread, since that is why a user would click on the bookmarklet?

Thanks! I thought about that, but there might be multiple threads for that URL, so I wanted to let the user know there might be multiple. Should I open multiple tabs?

Can you open a single thread but give an index when there are multiple threads?

This and the BetterHN Chrome extension are alternatives to each other. BetterHN is automatic, but injects crap into pages you view. And, obviously, a bookmarklet is cross-browser.

Options are good. Thanks, marcua!
