Paolo had a feature request for Radio:
I don't know exactly whom should I send the request to, so I'm posting it here.
Most of posts that I write have a bunch of links. Usually I write the post first, then I add the links. Adding links usually implies:
- Running a search on google
- Copying the url of the page I want to link
- Creating the link in the post
Something like 95% of the times, the link I'm looking for is the first match in the google's results page. Type any person name and his/her weblog are going to be the first hit. Type any product or company name, and the product or company sites are going to be the first hit.
Now... guess what I want? [Paolo Valdemarin Weblog: Feature Request]
Guess what I want too. But I want it in a slightly different form. I want to be able to hilite some text, copy it to the clipboard if necessary, run an Applescript on it (via Script Menu maybe?), and have the first link returned by google (or the one for 'I'm Feeling Lucky') put into the clipboard to be pasted. Even better, make it a service! Anyone know how hard this would be? Is this a good first project to for me in the Apple scripting/programming world?
