A bookmarklet is simply javascript code.
eg.) javascript: alert('Hi!');void(0);You can create a bookmark in your browser and add that code for it. Whenever you click on that bookmarklet, it will then execute that code on the current page and in this particular case alert a message saying 'Hi!'. It's pretty simple, hope you understand.
