Notes

Why do I have to navigate to this project's GitHub Page before installing the bookmark?

The GitHub-flavored markdown renderer on this project's repo page doesn't allow inline javascript, which is how the bookmark functions, so the simple "drag-and-drop" into your bookmarks bar doesn't work. GitHub pages allow this.
