"I almost always edit the title, but the big score is having the URL field populated automatically by the bookmarklet. Prior to the arrival of copy-and-paste in OS 3.0, the only other way I could have gotten the URL from one page in MobileSafari to the link URL field in Movable Type in a second page in MobileSafari would have been to type it out by hand — painstaking and error-prone."

It's interesting how many possibilities OS 3.0 has opened up for people. For me personally, I've come to the conclusion that if someone could hack in support for Apple's BlueTooth Keyboard, I wouldn't need to carry my laptop on most business trips. Granted, Gruber's talking mostly about blogging, but it's not hard to extrapolate that out to any other line of work that involves writing.
