Google Bookmarks in iPhone

I recently decided to move my bookmarks from Simpy (http://simpy.com) where they have languished waiting for me to tag them, to Google Bookmarks (http://google.com/bookmarks).

There’s a bookmarklet on that page for desktop browsers that works well. However I also wanted to use this on my iPhone. You can use bookmarklets from the iPhone bookmarks once you get them in there, but there’s no simple way yet that I could find.

Here’s the current code for that bookmarklet, hopefully the blog engine won’t mangle it. Just create a throw-away bookmark and then edit it, setting the url to the following by copy-pasting it:

javascript:(function(){var a=window,b=document,c=encodeURIComponent,d=a.open("http://www.google.com/bookmarks/mark?op=edit&output=popup&bkmk="+c(b.location)+"&title="+c(b.title),"bkmk_popup","left="+((a.screenX||a.screenLeft)+10)+",top="+((a.screenY||a.screenTop)+10)+",height=420px,width=550px,resizable=1,alwaysRaised=1");a.setTimeout(function(){d.focus()},300)})();

UPDATE: I confirmed that this works with the iPhone, but so far no dice with the Android Droid..

UPDATE; It looks like Android (well the built-in browser) doesn’t support bookmarklets at this time -
