title: Adding Mac OS X app to "General Services"
body: <p>I have found that "Services..." a very useful place to add functionality via AppleScript.</p>

  <p>I have written a small OS X app that uploads documents to a web based service (it requires OAuth2) and thought it would be great to add this functionality to the "Services" submenu. For example, when I am viewing a pdf in Preview to upload directly from a Services item.</p>
  
  <p>I have tried wading through Apple's documentation on "Services", but I don't see how to add one outside of the Automator. I would be happy to use that but:</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li><p>Do I need to make my app AppleScript-able? If so, how?</p></li>
  <li><p>Is there another way to add Services outside of the Automator?</p></li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>Thanks!</p>
