If you insist on using S3, this seems like the easiest solution, the comments hold particular value; suggested usage includes rdiffs and swapping out launchd for Automator and ical.

Bookmarklets, typically, are single line javascript applications. According to this wikipedia article, “Steve Kangas of www.bookmarklets.com coined the term “bookmarklet,” which he started to create based on an idea suggested in the Netscape JavaScript Guide.” With the help of John Gruber’s bookmarklet building perl script you have to know even less about javascript. In about an hour I whipped up a little bookmarklet that takes me ecarlist.com’s various client web sites. That same bookmarklet code can be embedded in a link as well. Here’s an example: ecarlist (Hint: enter the number 199). Of course this is a stripped down version, the real one has a few extra lines worth of error correction. Here’s another example further highlighting the usefulness and cross-platform availability of bookmarklets; Drew McLellan wrote a bookmarklet that replaces the iPhone/ iPod-Touch WebClip Bookmarks with one’s of your own choosing.

Specifically, I’d like to make an ajaxed index of all my music organized by artist. It’s a spare time project, and I don’t have much of that right now, but it’s coming along well. I started out by making an HTML index of a directory of directories with perl (you can find that here).

Since I don’t really know any javascript I’m relying on iUI to handle most of that for me.

Now I’m looking for a way to embed an mp3 on a page, but I can’t find anything iPhone or mp3 specific and searching Google brings up broken links. This is really more of a bookmark for me, but I plan on trying Apple’s generic instructions for movies with an mp3. You can find the embed tags for quicktime here. Alternatively, Apple’s devcenter does have iPhone specific material, but nothing mp3 specific (login required).

You’ve been able to customize your Google searches for a while. Now, Google has made it copy and paste simple with its onthefly link.

Your likely to receive an error message when you play anything password protected. The work around goes something like http://username:password@host.com/foo.mp3

Good luck with that. I’m thinking about writing a little javascript to work around this. I’ll update this post if I ever get to it.
