Blockstop Coral CDN Frontend

I´ve written a large article about Coral CDN just a few days ago. Here is a short introduction for those who might have missed this article. Coral CDN caches websites, basically every website that one of its users opens for the first time. After caching this website is available for all other users of the network and is accessible by appending nyud.net:8080 to the url. Now, in this article I mentioned a firefox extension which appends the nyud.net:8080 extension automatically to your links but what about the people who may not use firefox ?

If firefox is banned or not available like in my office you are stuck with appending the chars manually. That´s what I thought. A avid reader of my blog mentioned the blockstop coral cdn frontend to me and it is working nicely. It reminds me a lot of those web proxy sites. Enter a url, click get url and a blockstop frame appears above the sites content of the url that you want to visit.

This is not a proxy of course but a way to access cached pages through a web frontend without installing software on your computer or entering the url and extension manually. I will try this one when I´am at work today. (we only have Internet Explorer and many websites are locked out from the network) Please let me know if this is working for your special case and if you witness any limitations or drawbacks.

   you can use this bookmarklet to \”coralize\” a location

   javascript:void((function(){location.href=location.href.replace(/^

   http\\:\\/\\/([^\\/\\@]+)\\/(?:)/,%22http://%22+%22$1%22.replace

   (%22\\:%22,%22.%22)+%22.nyud.net:8090/%22);})())

   make it a firefox smartlet by setting the keyword to \”c\” and then all you need to do is type c in the address bar to make it a coral URL

   Please note that the above bookmarklet is one line of code, I had to edit it because it broke the design.

   You can take a look a the bookmarklet at the coral cdn homepage http://coralcdn.org/plugins/
