Interesting find. I could use this idea in Stylebot (http://stylebot.me). It's a Chrome extension that allows you to live edit a custom stylesheet for any page on the web.
Thanks for the amazing feedback! Lots of great ideas! I'll definitely try implementing some of them in future versions.
As far as sharing is concerned, you're right, it'll definitely add a lot of value to Stylebot. But, as you pointed out, it is important to be careful while building such a site. I want there to be some form of curation so that I can keep it minimalist and it doesn't degenerate into userstyles.org (which is a nice place to share styles, but it is so hard to search for good ones there!) Maybe a user up/down voting system.
For the same reason, it'll take some thought and time to build this. I also want it tightly coupled with Stylebot, so that it is easy to install/share styles without too much effort. I'll definitely take a shot at this whenever I've some free time. It'll be great to have other developers jumping in! :)
Love the simple, clean design without any distractions. Great idea too.
Are you manually adding the quotes/vidoes?
If it's possible to do it in a very subtle manner (footer?), maybe a small tweet icon would be nice (for quotes add the quote to tweet, for videos add the video link)
#1 - What do you mean by deleting an ad? Do you mean to hide an element on a page whenever that page is opened?
I'm not sure how the inspect command will work, though.
Thanks. The default behavior of gleeBox is to search for links when you enter any text.
So, you can simply enter a part of the text of the link you want to go to. If multiple links have the same text, you can TAB your way to the right link. You don't need to use ?a.
gleeBox and vimperator differ a lot in the way they work even though their core functionality is the same, that is to aid in navigation.
And, with gleeBox, you can do a lot more like search bookmarks, execute bookmarklets, yubnub commands, etc. Plus, I think it is more easy to use for the non-vim junkies :)
We actually tried to implement the #1 feature. But, as it turns out, there is no easy way of doing that via JavaScript. It definitely would've been awesome.
For #3, we experimented with a hyperglee mode. In that mode, gleeBox shows up automatically when you open a page. It actually exists but is an undocumented feature (since we weren't completely satisfied with the results) :)
In Chrome, you can turn the hyper mode on/off by executing '!set hyper=on/off'. Doesn't work too well in Firefox, though.
