You can add a 'favelet' to your bookmarks bar that will create a mail
message including the page's URL.

Simply create a bookmark in the bookmarks, name it 'Send Link', and paste to
following javascript as URL (all in one line):

javascript:location.href='mailto:?SUBJECT='+document.title+'&BODY=<'+escape(
location.href)+'>'

Now, if you want to send the link of the page you're looking at, simply
click 'Send Link'. Et Voila...


Cheers,
Peter.
