Gmail+Todoist Firefox plugin

[ICR], a Todoist user, has created a KICK-ASS Firefox plugin that integrates Todoist even better into Gmail. Kudos to Andrew, he did this without any help from me and in only one day. Truly a Todoist :)

Features in pictures

Your emails are decorated with a Add To Todoist link:

When Add To Todoist is clicked a modal window pops up (GreyBox of course):

To install the plugin, follow Gmail integration guide on Info page or view it online.

Hey, even the colors match the UI of Gmail.
It works, and the integration is seamless.

P.S. Someone should notify Google about this ;-)

Someone should notify Google that ID's are meant to be unique. It's a nightmare injecting HTML, I had to loop through 13 children to get to the right place.

I've just noticed that it's not actually the latest version - it doesn't include nice rounded corners. That should be updated soon :)

Good work Andrew [IRC].

nice. works as advertised :)

That's such a great solution. I'm using it for 3 Days now, and i won't miss it! Thanks so much!

cool, looks great! i'll test it.

How about integration with Google Calendar instead? Surely this would make more sense, seeing how it is desperately crying out for a task list.

yeah, that's a great tool! thanks!

Note to any javascript experts out there (I know there are at least two that were involved on this project!):

What would the javascript code look like if I wanted clicking on the "Add to Todoist" button to open up the forward textarea and prepopulate the "to" field with a preset email address? I'm thinking the preset email will be my cell phone's email address. I want to be able to click a button and automatically forward the current email.

The gmail code is impossible for a javascript rookie like me to even follow.

Im using it for a few weeks now, and i have to say: i don't wanna miss it. thank you for that.

A keyboard shortcut for the "Add to Todoist" link would be amazing... I'm getting really fast with shortcuts and hate having to click the link to get the Todoist window. Otherwise, awesome plugin!

It doesn't work with the new version of Gmail. Any updates on the way?!

I've sent an e-mail two weeks ago to the developer, but i haven't got a reply yet.

I miss this feature as well.

It also doesn't work in FF3, because it "doesn't provide secure updates". Is there an update in the works?

any update for FF3? won't install because it says it "doesn't provide secure updates." i would love to have this functionality!

thanks!

This plugin is great. Is the source code open for the plugin. What all information does this plugin read from Gmail? Just concerned about privacy.

Wonderful plug-in. Thanks for sharing.
