Hi All,

I have found this very cool RSS scraper software called MyHeadlines (www.jmagar.com) ...it works buy either subscribing to pre determied news feeds OR you can create your own 'scrapers' that scrape news sources from any site on the net... take a look here at an example: example

What would be AWESOME is if some GURU could somehow work out a way to incorporate news feeds scraped using MyHeadlines into a predetermined forum (News Forum for example)...ie: have these news feeds that we can scrape from any news source and have them posted into a news forum...then we could just prune the forum every 14 days or so...and it would be sweet!!

It would be a very challenging and very COOL hack!!!!

I would really like to discuss this with anyone who is interested!!

Cheers

Paul

I maybe could add this hack to a newsfader...
If you want

But you have to say wich headlines you want :/

[Maybe a dropdown menu above fader to select BBC CNN or something]

Nevermind some other may do this, just downloaded zip file :|

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
