The Mac Observer - Ihnatko - I Love AppleScript Studio: "Boy, the more I work with AppleScript Studio, the more I love the thing.

I don't use any commercial apps to maintain and manage my weblog. When I started YellowText in 1995, the word 'blog' didn't even exist. A simple script to automatically upload an HTML file to my webserver became a more complicated script to automate the whole process, and eventually a simple AppleScript Studio app that took text from BBEdit, did a little dance with it, and then told Interarchy to post it. That's CWOBber (Colossal Waste of Bandwidth weblogger.). The goal for CWOBber2 was immediately obvious: make it a completely self-contained app with no need for external text editors or FTP apps at all. Make it slicker and easier to use. Maybe add a little, what do call it? Oh, yeah: 'error reporting.' That's the baby.
