The Moogi Bookmarklet
Hello! I’m Steve, the tech guy here at moogi.
We think Moogi.com is a great resource for people to find and interact with products, locations, and other information within TV shows, episodes and scenes. But what about seeing that data while you are watching a show on a site like Hulu, Fancast, Veoh or one of the major network sites?
To make that work, we built the Moogi Bookmarklet.
The Bookmarklet allows you to pull up an overlay on top of any website. For example, you could be watching an episode of Gossip Girl on www.cwtv.com, and then pull up this overlay to see the products characters are wearing, or which songs are in a scene. After you pick the episode, you can pick a scene and see exactly which objects are in that scene. By default, the bookmarklet shows all information related to: Characters, Products, Locations, Music and Information. However, you can modify the display by using the checkboxes on the right of the overlay to select only specific data categories.
You can also log in to your moogi account and save “Moogied moments” to your My Moogi page, enabling you to easily refer back to your favorite moments later.
The overlay sits at the top of any web page. You can click in the upper right of the Bookmarklet to pop the overlay out into its own window.
Getting the Bookmarklet
More detailed instructions about adding the Moogi Bookmarklet to your web browser can be found here: bookmarklet instructions
You can also simply use one of the icons below in Internet Explorer, Firefox or Safari.
Firefox: Click and drag this 
to your toolbar.
Internet Explorer: Right click on this 
, choose “Add to Favorites” and then add to the “Links” folder (IE 6, IE 7) or “Favorites Bar” (IE 8).
Click “yes” to move past any security warnings.
Safari: Click and drag this 
to your toolbar.
That’s it, no real “installation” necessary. Click the Bookmarklet icon in your toolbar to bring up the overlay, and just click it again to hide the overlay.
It’s manual, for now…
The bookmarklet does not currently follow along with the time code of playing video - so if you hear a song in the background of a scene and want to know what it is, you simply drag the slider over in the bookmarklet to the appropriate time, or select the scene from the dropdown in the bookmarklet.
The Moogi Bookmarklet is being constantly updated and improved. We’ll be working with different sites to allow the Bookmarklet to update with the time in video automatically. Even now, with manual updating, the Bookmarklet works with any site.
We think the Bookmarklet is really useful and will enhance both your television watching and Moogi experiences. If you have any trouble with it, comments or suggestions, post here or write to tech@moogi.com - thanks!
