Getting Dynamic News into vB

Hi All,

I dont know if you have heard of a very cool piece of software from www.jmagar.com called MyHeadlines...but its basically (from my limited understanding) an RSS news delivery system that lets you use custom scrapers to mirror news feeds from pretty much ANY site you want!!!..

Have a look here: http://www.vfxtalk.com/news/html/ these are some very quick scrapers that i have wrote for some CG related website...as you can see, there is various news feeds as they appear on their home site...

Now, my Question is: How would one go about getting news (with pictures if they are available) automatically posted into a 'news' forum on my site??

Also, what other ways are there to incorporate some form of dynamic news feed into vB??

OR, what other ways are there to just GET free news in the first place...i really like the portal hack...but i would really only use the 'news' aspect of it...

Cheers for all your help & thoughts!!
