How about some code to get the new URLs that I've added to my favorites over the past 24 hours?


$NewFavorites = get-childitem $env:userprofile\favorites -recurse`
  -include *.url |
 where-object {($_.lastwritetime -ge (Get-date).adddays(-1))}
$urls = @()
Foreach ($NewFavorite in $NewFavorites) {
 $content = get-content $NewFavorite
 $url = ($content[1]).split("=")[1]
 $urls += $url
}
$urls

I need to test more - what if I've added 0 or 1 item to my favorites, does this still work?

UPDATE:
And then again, this guy's a genius :)

And modified to get just the 'new' URLS


gci $env:userprofile\favorites -rec -inc *.url |
  where-object {($_.lastwritetime -ge (Get-date).adddays(-1))}
    | ? {select-string -inp $_ -quiet "^URL=http"}
       | select @{Name="Name";`
          Expression={[IO.Path]::GetFileNameWithoutExtension($_.FullName)}},`
           @{Name="URL"; Expression={get-content $_ |`
               ? {$_ -match "^URL=http"} | % {$_.Substring(4)}}}

Hopefully my added line breaks still produce some code that runs.
