Topic: FEATURE REQUEST: Alerts

Hey, I had the same issue with the Campfire sound notifications. I wrote a Greasemonkey script you might want to check out: Campfire Notifications

There’s a blog post too with a little more discussion: Making Campfire Work for Me

Hope that helps!

Topic: Favlet to save pages

http://www.backpackit.com/api/ is the old version of the API. http://developer.37signals.com/backpack/ is the new version. I don’t know if the old url still works or not but I know some things broke with their last API update. They are working on updating the API page again , and hopefully they’ll redirect the old URL to the new one.

The call to add a new item to a list would be http://username.backpackit.com//ws/page/#{page_id}/lists/#{list_id}/items/add

I don’t use Mac, so you’re script doesn’t help me, but hopefully it can help the kgosser.

If you have a mac, you can use this Applescript ( you’ll need to get your API key & manually get the list of pages following the instructions at http://www.backpackit.com/api/—fortunately curl comes standard with os x)

tell application “Safari”

set url_current to URL of front document as text

end tell

set theScript to “curl -H ‘Content-Type: application/xml’ -d \”<request><token>your-backpack-api-key-here</token><item><content>” & url_current & “</content></item></request>\” http://username.backpackit.com/ws/page/id-of-your-target-page/items/add“

do shell script theScript

Could this be done with some JavaScript code to use the API? Add an Item to a List on a specific page with this call . Maybe setup one list to be your “catch all” and move your links later on?

Maybe when I get more free time (haha, yea right), I’ll give this a try.

Agreed. This would be a great feature, but it seems unlikely to make it. kgosser, any chance you’d be willing to save me a Saturday afternoon and share the source for your version?
