How To Export Items From Shovebox Mobile and Import Them Into Yojimbo

Thanks to MacHeist, I had the chance to download and test Shovebox, a lightweight organizer for Mac OS X. Then, I found out that there was a Shovebox app for iPhone too, so I decided to give it a try. Expect a review soon.

Anyway, this is not a review of Shovebox mobile. In this tutorial I’ll show you how you can export items from Shovebox mobile and import them into Yojimbo on your Mac. As you can guess, Shovebox mobile + Yojimbo could become the ultimate data organizer setup: every data you shove on the go can be easily imported into Yojimbo on your desktop.

The process is a little bit complex and it’s based on an Automator workflow I created, but once you’ve set up everything it will take 2 seconds to export/import all the files.

Enjoy!

Everyone today knows RSS feeds.

Well, pretty much everyone I’d say, maybe my father doesn’t know anything about feeds subscriptions.

Anyway, RSS is surely a good way to stay up to date with the blogs / websites you follow but we’ve recently seen how Twitter has managed to become a favourite tool of many out there. It’s simple and supports real-time (sorta).

Now, let’s say you don’t like Twitter and you can’t stand Google Reader but still you want to receive updates about what happens on the web. Is it possible?

Sure, with Broadersheet.

How To: Use Google Wave from your iPhone.

Yesterday Google sent out the first 100.000 invites of Google Wave preview.

Which is different from the “Sandbox Developer Preview” that launched months ago: this is a first official beta.

Anyway, if you’re in the lucky ones who get full access to Mountain View’s new communication tool, here’s a tip for you: you can use Wave from your iPhone.

There’s a lot of unit converter apps in the App Store: it seems like it’s one of the latest trends of 2009.
