The “linkify” bookmarklet is a handy little gadget — one of those small things that makes life a little easier. (Kind of like having a decent can-opener or a sharp paring knife.)
When you’re writing in a text area, you can quickly create a link by selecting some text, clicking the bookmarklet, choosing the URL from the search pane that opens, and — Bingo! — link created.
Make sure you’re really in a text area when you try it. If what you are using is actually some kind of WYSIWYG editor, it won’t work. To use in WordPress posts, use the “Code” tab on the default editor.
