There isn’t one.
So lets make it in a few quick, simple, steps!
1) Open Chrome and Right Click on any bookmark you have across the top of your browser.
2) Click on Add Page
For NAME:
eMail Link
For URL:
javascript:location.href=’mailto:?SUBJECT=’+document.title+’&BODY=’+escape(location.href);
3) Save it!
Now when you need to share the latest Geek Fill posting or awesome Craft Beer discovery – just click “eMail Link!”

Doesn't seem to be working for me.

Not working here either

I tested it several times – fires up my default mail client every time. Sometimes takes a second. What are you seeing?
Works in Firefox too . ..

Hi. My PASTE came out like:
javascript:location.href=’mailto:?SUBJECT=’+document.title+’&BODY=’+escape(location.href);
Do you see anything wrong with it, because it's not working for me. Thanks!

August 26th, 2012 at 4:27 pm
you have to type the entire thing in by hand, and then it works. Cut and paste will not do it.
September 15th, 2012 at 7:33 am
javascript:location.href="mailto:?SUBJECT="+document.title+"&BODY="+escape(location.href);

Didn't work for me initially either but I deleted and re-typed the quotes as Martin says and it works well. Thanks Dan.

Hi, Guys,
Thanks so much for all the advice here. This was driving me mad at first, before I tried typing the whole thing in by hand, and that worked! Thanks again!

Reason enough to change back to IE-9 – let me know when Google installed the button! BTW.: I cannot see that Chrome is faster then IE-9 – really NOT!

Thanks. It shows as apostrophe's in the original post, but your re-post has it as quotes. Thanks for clarifying.
January 8th, 2013 at 8:15 am
DOESN'T WORK. Not so much because the link itself is bad, but because Google Chrome does NOT respect the operating system/desktop's setting for "default mail handler". All it does is open a new browser window, and goes absolutely NOWHERE. And with all the re-designs of Chrome, you can't even find the excessively hidden settings that let you define a separate mail handler (in my case, Thunderbird).
January 10th, 2013 at 1:58 pm
Yep, just fix the quotes and it works fine.

Everything worked fine with one problem I don't understand. When I tried out the newly created e-mail bookmark, my AOL ISP opened, although it was not connected since I was connected to Google Chrome. I was able to select the people I wanted to send the web page to and click "Send Later" on the AOL service. Don't have any idea how this happened, but at least I can now send web pages while viewing Chrome by using AOL. That's around the block and up the street when the solution is for Chrome to fix their problem! What are they waiting for?

I use Google, I was leery of this application working, and it didn't. I followed the instructions to the "t" but it just doesn't work. Tried it several times. So, what is the trick?
February 8th, 2013 at 10:07 am
If you cut and paste each line it will work so you don't have to type it out
February 27th, 2013 at 2:10 pm
Works great for me in Google chrome. Thanks for the tip. I owe you a brewski.

How do you get it to change the application? It launches Mail not Outlook. Thanks!
