-- I use this snippet with Octopress to make new linklog posts.
-- I've tweaked the new_post rake task to allow me to fill in
-- the external-url: property by taking in a second argument:
-- rake new_post["Blog Title","http://some.url.com/"]
-- If the 2nd argument is the empty string, then I omit
-- that property in the yaml front matter.

-- I should note that I haven't updated my Octopress engine in a long time,
-- and when I set up the blog, link posts weren't built in. So
-- there may be a proper rake task for this now, since I think
-- the software now supports link posts natively.  Tweak to your liking.

tell application "Safari"
    set pageTitle to name of document 1
    set currentURL to URL of current tab of window 1
end tell

-- Here's how I return the information I pulled out 
-- so that the script is useful as a TextExpander Snippet

return "rake new_post[\"" & pageTitle & "\",\"" & currentURL & "\"]"
