Ask HN: how do you export/share all your saved stories?
I'm enough of a hacker to obtain them myself, but it seems like a typical task so I'm asking: is there a 'packaged' way to either make your 'saved stories' HN page public or simply export the list of URLs and titles to text file / browser bookmarks / delicious / whatever sharable?
- aw3c2 14y agoHow can you save stories on HN?
- ansgri 14y agoBy upvoting. Upvoted links are listed under 'saved stories' link on your profile page. Hence the name.
- Mz 14y agoI believe ColinWright recently posted a notice that he had written scripts for that. If I needed it, I would check his recent submissions. If he has been too prolific for that to hit paydirt, I would search HN with something like "I have scripts for that" "saved stories" and ColinWright. (Still nothing? Refine the search. But you knew that.) (I am on an Android and HN gives my browser serious indigestion. I don't happen to love you deeply enough to go through the torture it would involve in finding the link for you. You will have to do your own searching. Sorry.)
- ansgri 14y agoThanks! Found it: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5060631 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5060631 Still surprised that this is not an officially supported workflow, though...
- Mz 14y agoIt used to be. I don't know when or why it stopped working. Fixing bugs on hn is not a high priority for pg. Nor do I see any reason that bugs which are merely inconvenient should be. Glad you found it. Thanks for posting the link.
