Maybe I have not looked hard enough but I have yet to see an XML data importing script for Vbulletin. Example: Grabbing
http://slashdot.org/slashdot.xml headlines and placing them in a daily post.
This could also be used for XML data providers like Wall Street Journal, CNN and other major data providers.
Not sure the practical application for most Vbulletin boards since this would mainly be used for very topic specific boards but could open the door to Vbulletin sites to be a bit more cotnent rich capable.
