I guess I should also create a “Resources” link with these user contributions. I’m also thinking of adding some public forums but I’m still evaluating which ones to use. I think we’re starting to build a community around WebnoteHappy. Actually, if anyone speaks Chinese – please let me know since I need a bit of help translating. Thanks Jon! It’s great to have user contributions – that’s three in two days that I’ve blogged about and there’s at least one more I need to blog. I have a few friends who have thousands of these weblocs littering their system so maybe this will tide them over until I get an Import from webloc files feature. Dessert is again importing the XBEL into WebnoteHappy. It starts off with a Spotlight Importer for weblocs and goes into the second course via a shell script which uses mdfind2 and XSL to generate an XBEL file. These are those files that are generated when you drag from your browser like Safari and drop on the Desktop or in Finder. Jon’s quite a talented developer actually – he later followed it up with a way to import your WebLoc files or Internet Clippings into WebnoteHappy. It is a two step process, OmniWeb -> XBEL file then XBEL file -> WebnoteHappy via File > Import from XBEL. In the meantime, Jonathan Wight has kindly created a way to import from OmniWeb into WebnoteHappy. I’m working on importing from other browsers, so please email me or comment here about which ones you use so I can prioritize the work. Im now trying to replicate the exact conditions under which OmniWeb will delete my bookmarks. I’ve already got import from Safari bookmarks working and if you’ve got a browser that can export to XBEL (which is almost none) then that works too. If I leave OmniWeb running without bookmarks, it will helpfully delete the newly restored bookmarks when I quit the bookmarkless instance. Importing your bookmarks into WebnoteHappy is a good way to consolidate your bookmarks into one place where you can add notes and tag them.
