I like the idea of (ab)using protocols to do not-quite what they were intended to do. Pushing RSS feeds into IMAP is a great idea - I wonder how much work it'd take to make NewsBeuter to that, then expose it somewhere and have FastMail pull it into a folder for me. These hacks eventually start looking like Rube-Goldberg machines, but they've got a certain charm. Offtopic: I wrote a Wake-on-Lan server that allows me to turn on VMs as if they were physical machines - https://github.com/voltagex/junkcode/tree/master/CSharp/VirtualBoxAsAService/NullReference.WakeOnVirtual https://github.com/voltagex/junkcode/tree/master/CSharp/Virt... The next one for me is probably going to be a DNS server that resolves the name and IPs of VMs.
