Extract html book files from the safari books online iPad app "Safari To Go" using php.

Save books out of Safari Books Online

From http://objectivesea.tumblr.com/post/9033067018/safaribooks

This is hard. I spent way too much time figuring this out, because I was annoyed that a book I bought (Addison-Wesley) was available online for free, except only for 45 days after which payment was required. So I made this hack... probably useful to no one else, but here it is.

Requirements:

  1. iPad.
  2. Safari To Go (the Safari Books Online iPad app).

Intelligently rename active document in BBEdit.

BBEdit Rename Active Document Script

The script itself has most of the documentation. Just know that there are two scripts here:

  1. A plain-text version (.applescript)
  2. A compiled version (.scpt)

How to download all your Instagram pictures in highest resolution without using any API
Following the news about Facebook buying Instagram I decided to delete my Instagram account before Facebook claims ownership of my pictures.
Since the Instagram-recommended (in their FAQ): http://instaport.me/export doesn't work for me (probably they can't cope with the high demand),
here is a quick and dirty way to download all my Instagram pictures in their highest resolution in a few easy steps.
You will need: Firefox, Firebug, some text editor, wget
1. Go to http://statigr.am/yourlogin using Firefox with Firebug extension active
2. Scroll down as many times as it is needed to have all yor pictures thumbnails displayed (I had some 3 hundred pictures so it was not that much scrolling, YMMV)
3. In the Firebug JS console run this JS code: $(".lienPhotoGrid a img").each(function(index) { console.log($(this).attr('src')) })
4. JS console will contain urls to all the thumbnails images, like this: http://distilleryimage1.s3.amazonaws.com/4ed46cf2801511e1b9f1123138140926_5.jpg

This lets you use the Wordnik API in Twine to get random nouns and adjectives. I didn't include verbs because conjugation sucks and I'm lazy.#TwineHacks

This Twine macro lets you use the Wordnik API to get random nouns and adjectives for your story.

See a demo in action here.

How to set it up

  • IMPORTANT FIRST STEP: you must have a Wordnik API key to use this! If you don't already have one, go here to register for an API key. If you do already have one, move on to the next step!
  • Paste the contents of the WordnikRandomWords.js file below into a new passage. Call the passage whatever you want, and add the tag "script" to it.
  • Modify the first line of the passage you just created so that instead of "var API_KEY = 'xxxxxxx'" you replace the x's with your actual API key you got from Wordnik.
