To install the bookmarklet, in Firefox or Safari just drag this icon to your Bookmarks toolbar:

Drag the candle

The ‘Post to Protect The Human’ gadget lets you select any page around the web and even a chunk of text within that page to be added to the Protect The Human site for others to see, share and comment on. It should only take a couple of minutes to install but it will then let you add pages literally at the click of a button directly to this site.

Not only does that mean you should never lose a page of interest again, it also means that together we can create an amazing resource centred around common human rights themes like torture, death penalty, violence against women or the ‘war on terror’.

Installation for Firefox and Safari users (Mac and PC)

If you can’t see a list of your bookmarks at the top of the browser, go to View > Toolbars > Bookmarks Toolbar and make sure it is checked. On Safari this is called Show Bookmarks Bar.

Now simply drag and drop the ‘Post to Protect The Human’ icon to the left hand side of your other bookmarks.

You should now see a bookmark with that name and you can quickly and easily add any page to this site as you travel round the web by clicking the ‘Post to Protect The Human’ icon when you see something of interest.

Hint: if you select a block of text in an article, that text ends up automatically copied into the bookmarked page for you.
