Great video!

And as a fellow content creator, I must say I love your presentation. The graphics and console examples were super clean and easy to read. That's always something I strive for, and you've seemed to nail it.

    It's funny that you mention that because I'm already working on a solution around that. I'm working on a solution that will periodically backup the contents from your PSReadline history and save it in a searchable format. Then have a cmdlet like Search-History "whatever keywords". I'd like to make it a daemon so it could record estimated times and what console it executed from. I know it would save me a ton for searching.

    Also, my one huge-ass OneNote was the reason for me creating this. I found there were a few I kept going back for regularly and wanted a quicker way to get them. Glad to know I'm not the only one.

    I actually wrote a module to do just that. You can install it and just run Get-PSWeekly to get the latest edition. https://www.powershellgallery.com/packages/PSWeekly/0.0.1

    From a technical point of view the reason that script won't work is because of the way my site is set up. I'm using an add-on that has it's own content types the links. Each week has a unique tag, so they only show on that weeks page. Therefore, the actual post will only return the link tag for that week. Then you have to look up all of the links with that tag. You can see how I do it here:

    PowerShell does not have a built in PDF reader, so it is not possible without installing a module or calling a third party app. The PSWritePDF module will do what you are asking. The module can be installed from the gallery, so you could technically install and import it in a single line.
