tried it, nice work. - kukoo
nice catch J. Phil - Steven Hodson
I can attest that it works. I tried it on a fairly prominent feed who's names rhymes with 'scobleizer'.. I will say it does walk a close line between feed retrieval and content scraping, because it doesn't re-insert feed ads. Not that I mind, just fair warning. - Phil Glockner
The one I wanted it for the most it doesn't work on. Left a comment and hopefully it can be fixed. - Cyndy
J. Phil, thanks for this one. I'm going to probably include it in a piece I've been percolating. As for the non-reinsertion of feed ads, that's a too-bad, so-sad here. If you are sticking ads in your feed yet still forcing people to your site to actually read the article? Nuclear f-ing fail. - Cyndy
Cyndy - I totally agree. That's why I saved this screenshot: http://www.flickr.com/photos/e... I mean.. WTF. There is more ad than article text there. In fact, testing it on the AppleInsider feed now... success! - Phil Glockner
"post-workout algorithmic epiphany (it's the best time for them)" - it's true; I get most of my ideas then - Benjamin Golub
Thanks J. Phil. :) - Cyndy
I was worried when I saw that it was a couple of years old that people would give it a pass.. glad I took the risk! - Phil Glockner
