    I noticed the bookmarklet has changed. I like the new, simpler UI, but I cannot bookmark NYTimes pages. I have come across a number of pages that I cannot bookmark, but I work around it. However, not being able to bookmark NYTimes pages is a show stopper for me. Please tell me there's a fix coming soon?

    Three of four screen shots below show Diigolet entirely obscured by features of http://www.nytimes.com/

    My own workaround is to respond "No, thanks" in the NYT area that obscures Diigolet, but I assume that this does not suit users of 'TimesPeople' features.

    When I obscure the TimesPeople toolbar to reveal Diigolet, the six primary tabs and four other primary features of The New York Times shift upwards and lose themselves behind Diigolet.

    I can hide, reveal, hide, reveal, hide, reveal… Diigolet but the ergonomics are poor, drawing attention to highlighted aspects of http://www.diigo.com/annotated/e8c0911164affe88fa14c39f8d428909 and http://www.diigo.com/annotated/0a14f1af9178ca9f011ad17a287c4561

    Thinking positively: this morning I had a eureka! moment (not rocket science, uncomplicated) that might kick-start a fine complement or alternative to Diigolet as we know it. I won't let the cat out of the bag yet, need to do a little more road-testing of the thought before I let it loose…

    Postscript, second eureka! moment, cryptic note to self: eggs.

    Scott, forgive a question from a newbie, how do you work around it? Thanks, Grant

    Newbies welcome :)

    Grant, if you:

    1. click 'No, thanks' on the TimesPeople toolbar (assuming you're not a user of that particular service), then

    2. the TimesPeople toolbar will slide up, out of sight, and

    3. a click on Diigolet should slide its toolbar down into view.

    Grant, does that work around the issue for you?

    Regards
    Graham
