Announcing: Extract Microformats Script For NNW

I’m pleased to announce the release of my latest little hack for adding microformats support to NetNewsWire (not lite)—Extract Microformats v0.5.

This little script is actually a combination of theme files (css) and applescript to bring a bookmarklet like option that uses Technorati’s microformat services to save hCard or hCalendar data found in the content of feed items. After installation (just copying some files) saving events or contact data is as easy as 1, 2, 3… er… 4.

1 – Find an item with microformat content. Here I’m using a feed from Eventful with items containing events with embedded contact data.

Sample Feed Item

2 – Activate the script

script menu

3 – Select what to do with the data

script dialog

4 – Copy the saved data to your favorite app

files on desktop
