Private in Public: a weekend project.

Last weekend I took a day to play around with code and make a small project happen.

I wanted a bookmarklet that allowed you to encrypt small sections of the content you write into webpages.  So it would convert

‘I like [postmen]’ into

‘I like [e:U2FsdGVkX1/s5MdPIxsWMO0XvnZoWhcAM/76AWI6Y/I=]’

(obviously, when you are viewing the encrypted text, the bookmarklet will also let you view it).

All of the code and instructions are here, and below are some screenshots of it in action.

The next step is to make it into a Chrome Extension, which I’ve done, but which needs some polishing before it goes properly live on the store. Maybe that’s a thing for another weekend.
