Scholarfy: bookmarklet to reclaim Google Scholar

Sweet. It works perfectly. I just tried Googling "novikoff kleinberg strogatz" and our recent paper annoyingly didn't come up as one of Google's search results. I then clicked your Scholarfy button, which I had just installed in my bookmarks bar, and then the paper comes up as the only result in Google Scholar. This will be really convenient, I can tell, because I often search Google for a paper but then realize that I want to search Google Scholar instead. Now I can do that with one click.
Yep, thanks for outlining the exact use case!
This is perfect, I've been wanting something like this for a while but have been too busy to build it myself. Any chance you'll throw it up on GitHub so we can see the source?
Zephyr: Glad it's useful. It's actually super simple, and github would be overkill. It simply extracts the active query from the open page and redirects to scholar. The complete script is:
"javascript:location = 'http://scholar.google.com/scholar?q= + escape(document.forms[0].elements['q'].value);"
I made the webpage with a description and drag-able bookmarklet in order to help non-coding researchers easily add it to their browsers.

Thanks, i was complaining about that not long ago.
