- mrmekon 9y agoI can't believe wayback machine has this. I ran a text-only scraper for ~200 websites back in the early 2000s. https://web.archive.org/web/20060803053549/http://inr.cjb.net:80/ https://web.archive.org/web/20060803053549/http://inr.cjb.ne... Most were RSS feeds, since those used to exist. The rest were hand-written parsers, which were highly temperamental.
- deanclatworthy 9y agoThe problem with that is you could aggregate the links, but you can't host the content which kinda defeats the point in the first place.
