I created a bookmarklet that does the same thing for any website you're browsing. Makes it easy to transfer from PC to phone, assuming the phone can read QR codes.

This is excellent – I find this more useful than the parent article.

Thanks, glad you like it. I wanted an easy way to transfer the URL without installing plugins or having to be signed into specific accounts.

Would be even more useful if it could QR-ify any currently select text. I was just thinking of doing that myself.

Ok, done it. Try this:
