Hey. New board.

I'm trying to get all of my Springpad recipes into Evernote, as the new Springpad app for Android is even less functional for my needs than the old one.

There is no export method for springpad notes that works with Evernote, but I CAN access all of my recipes through a private RSS address. If I could simply send all of the individual entries in the feed to my e-mail, I'd be done!

I was able to get just the most recent one to send using one of the web services that forward RSS to e-mail, but the services are really designed to send entries as they come, not to send all of the ones that are still available from the past.

Does anybody know an RSS reader or service that will parse all of the entries available at an RSS feed and send them as individual e-mails to a given address?

ETA: Never mind, the Python script rss2email let me do it. A bit of a hassle, but it works.

Hey. New board.

I'll look into it next time, but I got this working. Honestly, I may slowly reclip the recipes from their original sources, as the Springpad formatting isn't as nice as the original in many cases.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I agree. I have recipes in evernote and springpad for some reason.

I'm juuuuust getting into Evernote. I'm having trouble remembering that it might be useful and I should use it.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I fucked up my tags in evernote. I wish there was a way to erase all tags.

Hey. New board.

Anybody in the market for an older Mac laptop, probably 2.5 years old? It's one of the white Macbooks with the non-replaceable battery that they offered for a brief period before switching over to all-Aluminum, RAM upgraded to 4 GB. Office and dual-boot Windows 7 are currently installed. It works perfectly, including working as a decent-if-not-amazing gaming laptop under Windows, but now that my wife and I both have Windows laptops from school we really don't BOTH need Mac laptops at home. And hers is nicer.

I'm hoping to get $450 for it. Selling to a buffista would be cool. Anybody interested? I won't be able to put it in the mail for a week or so, as I need to make sure I've backed everything up, and clean it up.

ETA: I THINK it still has at least a few months of AppleCare on it, too. I need to check the serial number to be sure, and it's at school, but if that's an incentive I can check easily on Monday.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Gris, depending on it's other specs, Andi and I might want to buy it.

What size of screen is it?

Actually, when you see it Monday, the model number might let us look it up on everymac.com

Currently it is on sale at OfficeMax for 20% off through saturday. If you want one and there is an OfficeMax in your area that is cheaper than the Newegg price even if you get free shipping. I've had it up about five minutes and am happy so far. Will let you know if I end up not being happy.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

So this is the PHP code I have. It currently outputs a list of posts in all categories, sorted alphabetically. What I'm trying to do is remove the parent categories, so I only get the child categories shown on the page. Anyone know how to tweak this?

I know it's all in that one line towards the top, but I can't figure it out.

Edit: Crap, now I have to remember how to post code without it being eaten.
