SharePointFav: Your Favorites in a SharePoint List (and more)
I wanted to create an application like this for ages, but Steve Clark beat me, nice work Steve! Description from his web log post (visit this link to download too):
First of all, I'll give a bit of background on why I decided to write this program. As I've been working on various parts of the SharePoint platform I've inevitably come across all kinds of helpful web site links. Often, I'll take a URL and forward it to people on the team or add it to our SharePoint Developer Center links list. When I was adding a favorite to a links list one day, I thought, "I should be able to do this directly from Internet Explorer, just like I subscribe to an RSS feed in Newsgator." Thus was born SharePointFav. Adding a URL to a SharePoint list has several obvious benefits:
- Your links are now portable - no longer tied to your PC.
- Your links are searchable using the powerful SharePoint engine. They are searchable for you and your colleagues.
- You can add links to any SharePoint links list. If you have multiple sites covering multiple topics, this tool is for you.
- You can share URLs with team members.
- You can be alerted to new URLs on sites that you're interested in.
