Copy one/many NetNewsWire items to Evernote Apps
I've written two AppleScripts to ease the task of moving NetNewsWire feed items into Evernote. Both scripts allow you to tag your items on the way into Evernote, and also to decide which notebook to file the feeds in.
  • Single Headline or Tab: This is the quickest way to get an item into Evernote. You can find the instructions and script in this post on my blog.
  • Batch Sending: For when you need to do some heavier lifting -- slower, but brings over multiple items at once. You can find the instructions and script in this post on my blog.
Feel free to post comments on the scripts here; I'll check (though I'd appreciate it if you post a copy on the source page as well, to make sure I see them). In addition, for those who rely on Evernote, I have created a page to track the release of other Evernote-related AppleScripts around the web.

Your thoughts, comments, and suggestions for improvement would be greatly appreciated!

[robg adds: I've mirrored the two AppleScripts on the macosxhints servers (script #1, script #2) in case the originals ever go away. I have not tested these scripts.]

Evernote: way too complex UI
Authored by: hamarkus on Fri, Oct 24 2008 at 4:02PM PDT
Sorry for this slightly off-topic rant. But is there any app that synchronizes notes between the computer and the iPhone that has a really simple UI, as simple as Dashboard stickies?
Because anything else won't work for me. I started up Evernote and see this iTunes-like source list on the left and whoa this is like using a typewriter for a shopping list. I don't note down things to organize my life, I note down things because I have a terrible memory for names, words and numbers.

hamarkus -- You might find an application like this one a good fit:

But let's steer this back onto the thread topic.... ;)

If you've already downloaded the scripts, leave a comment here or at Veritrope.com and let me know how it's working for you!

Thanks for all of the interest, Mac OS X Hints readers!

The scripts have now received their first update, enabling URL transfer between NetNewsWire and Evernote items.

Download the new version and let me know what you think in the comments -- either on Veritrope.com or here.

Kind Regards,
Justin

I've just posted a new update to the Batch Archiver script -- some bug fixes, UI improvements, and even a new feature (Export URLs of open tabs to a new Evernote)!

Check it out and post your thoughts/bug reports at Veritrope.com
