The bookmarklet is the only setup necessary to use lloquy.com. Registration isn’t even necessary. With lloquy.com, you could be setup, bookmarking, and having conversations to in under 30 seconds. This post takes you through steps to install the bookmarklet on some different platforms. 

The easiest method is to just drag the bookmarklet image found on the main page to your bookmarks bar. For most platforms, including Safari, Firefox, and Chrome, you are setup in under 5 seconds.

For Internet Explorer, try these steps.

• Make sure your Links Toolbar is visible. If it is not, right-click on any part of the menu bar and make sure Links or Favorites Bar is checked.
• Right-click on the lloquy.com bookmarklet button and click Add to Favorites.
• Be sure to save the favorite in your “Links” folder so that it appears in your Links Toolbar.

For other platforms, such as the iPad, you may have to perform other steps, although they are still easy. To install the lloquy.com bookmarklet on the iPad, you have two options, which are detailed in the following subsection

Installing the lloquy.com bookmarklet on your iPad

To install the bookmarklet on your iPad quickly and easily, add the bookmark to  Safari or Firefox on your computer, then synchronize your bookmarks to your iPad with iTunes.

If you do not want to sync your bookmarks in this way, then you can perform the following steps.

• Ensure proper settings on the iPad by going to the Settings app and turning on Always Show Bookmarks Bar, as well as JavaScript. Set Accept Cookies to From Visited.

• If you are reading this on another platform besides the iPad, Open the Safari web browser app on your iPad and return to this page.
• Copy this link holding down and selecting Copy. 
• Click the button shown in the picture below. Click Add Bookmark.

• Change the name to lloquy.com and ensure the bookmark resides in your Bookmarks Bar. Click Save.
• Tap the bookmarks button in the toolbar. Ensure that you are seeing items from your bookmarks bar. Tap Edit and select the lloquy.com bookmark.
• Replace the URL with the copied text by first tapping the X button to clear the URL, then holding down your finger until the magnifying glass appears. Click Paste. Remove http://www.lloquy.com/? from the beginning of the URL.
• Save your changes and tap Done.

This method is awkward and has a higher probability of error. However, with the iPad’s inability to copy javascript, this is the best solution I could come up with at this time (I’d love to hear from developers who could do something better).

If you feel more platforms should be involved, let me know and I will try to add instructions.
