Guy 4/18/2021 No comments Welcome to the new design for the site ? I think I had the previous design for about 11 years(!!) so a new design was long overdue. This is the 5th major redesign I've done for my personal website since I launched it in 2001. Thanks to the Waybackmachine, here are some screenshots of the different designs over the years: July 2001 September 2003 (btw those boxes were transparent so it looked better) July 2004 April 2010 Whew, that was an eye sore ?. I also moved the blog over to blog.atguy.com and created a simple about me page on the homepage. Let me know if you notice anything wonky with the site, all the old links should still work. This one will probably be around for another 10 years so get used to it ? Share: 24 November 2017 Alfred open folder hotkey workflow Guy 11/24/2017 Code , Internet , Technology No comments Here's a really simple Alfred workflow I created that saves me tons of seconds every day. It does one very simple thing: adds a hotkey that opens Alfred and types in: "open " . So you can easily open any folder on your computer by just hitting the hotkey and typing the name of the folder you want to open. Plain and simple. You can download it here: Download the Open Hotkey Alfred workflow Share: 12 June 2017 How to customize Alfred to work with Google Calendar (Alfred workflow) Guy 6/12/2017 Code , Internet No comments I use Google Calendar in the browser a lot so I thought why not setup Alfred to make working with Google Calendar easier. (If you're not familiar with Alfred, it's an application launcher and productivity application for Mac) I started off with trying to find an Alfred workflow that lets you easily open Google Calendar and easily add an event. I couldn't find such a workflow so I started working out different ways Alfred could do what I need. At the end of the day I ended up creating this workflow that combines the different things I typically do with Google Calendar. It basically lets you do 3 things: Quickly open Google Calendar in the browser by typing the keyword gcal into Alfred. Open Google Calendar using the keyboard hotkey ⌘ + g Quickly add an event to Google Calendar. The format for adding an event to Google Calendar is: gc [event] at [time] on [date] in [location] For example: gc Dinner with friends at 8pm on next Sunday Will open this event: You can even do things like: gc Weekly meeting every Wednesday at 3pm And Google will add an event that repeats every Wednesday at 3pm. Google does a great job at understanding what you mean when you type in natural language so play around and see. You can also just type gc and hit enter and it will bring you to the new event page in Google Calendar. Download the Google Calendar Workflow If you don't want to add a workflow for some reason you can add this custom search instead: Add event to Google Calendar (clicking on that will prompt you to add it to Alfred, it's really easy to do) It will let you quickly add events to Google Calendar via Alfred using the same format as described above.
