Script Summary: Inserts a link into comment field with title fetched from link url.

Remotely hosted version

It is boring to write both URL and title when posting a link in a blog comment.

This script gets the title for you.

It prompts you for the URL and inserts <a href="url" title="title">title</a> into the comment field.

Use it by pressing Ctrl+Shift+N.

Any other suggestions on how to prompt for URL? Link next to comment box? Other key combination? Mouse click combination?

I included wordpress.com but it should work on many other sites as well.
