 * Do you miss a service on blummy? Well, create it for yourself. Don’t have a clue
   how Javascript works? Does not matter anymore.
    - [Feature] Wizard for create your own blummlet
 * This should make it quite easy to [create a blummlet](http://blummy.com/modify.php?new=1)
   for any service yourself.
 * Because space is a little limited there, I give a more detailed introduction 
   here:
 * Suppose there was no blummlet for searching at Google and you wanted to create
   one:
    1. First, log in and go to the [create a blummlet](http://blummy.com/modify.php?new=1)
       page. Open the wizard there.
    2. Open a new window or tab and navigate to the service (i.e. `http://www.google.
       com/`).
    3. Enter the query **BLUMMY** and submit the form. Wait for the results to appear.
    4. Click the location bar of your browser and copy the whole URL (mark the text
       and press Ctrl-C or Cmd-C). This would be `http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&
       q=BLUMMY&btnG=Google+Search` for me.
    5. Go back to the create blummlet page and type in the service name (i.e. Google)
       and paste the URL to the corresponding field (Ctrl-V or Cmd-V).
    6. Click “Create”.
    7. The wizard should have disappeared and most of the fields have been filled out.
       Now enter a description and click “Save”. Done.

   ## 󠀁[Loading Blummy…](https://alex.kirk.at/2005/12/01/loading-blummy/)󠁿
   
 * December 1, 2005
 * People have been complaining that it took more than one click to open blummy.
   The problem is that it may take some time to transfer the blummy script source
   to your computer (due to slow server, network, whatever). So after the first 
   click, blummy is loaded from `blummy.com`, when you click again (before blummy
   appears), you instantly close blummy again, so nothing happens. Only after the
   third click blummy opens.
 * Now our user fuska had the great idea to display a small “loading blummy” text,
   so the user knows what’s going on.
    - [Feature] “Loading blummy…” informs the user about the current ongoings.
 * The downside of this update is that you need to replace your blummy bookmarklet(
   as the loading text is displayed by the bookmarklet to do that instantaneously).
   So go to [blummy.com](http://blummy.com/), log in, and drag blummy to your toolbar
   again. That should do the trick.
 * Thanks, fuska!
