Kongregate Latest Badges Feed.

Tags: Kongregate, Feed43, RSS

Kongregate is a great site for online Flash gaming, combining the ease of use of Flash with the addiction of an achievement system. However, for some reason, they don't provide an RSS feed of the latest badges added to the site. So, I've created a feed using Feed43 you can use to view badges as they come in. Feed URL: http://feed43.com/2506827300517453.xml If you're interested in how I got the right parameters for this feed, read on.

Dated Notes Automation.

Tags: automator

This Automator workflow will create a new text file on the Desktop with the name notes-YYYY-MM-DD.txt, where YYYY, MM, and DD are replaced with the current year, month, and day, respectively. It will then open that file in the default text editor. This was inspired by a conversation with Nic Boman.

Save for Web Automation.

Tags: automator, conversion

This is an automator script saved as an application for converting images to a web-ready format. Download and unzip the application, then drag your photos onto it: the converted photos will be placed on your desktop. Inspiration for this program can be found on Friendfeed here. It should work in Mac OS X 10.4 and 10.5: hopefully it works for you!
