I wonder if people will eventually surf ad-free by sniffing out these files. Easy to parse (maybe even easier than the actual article itself) and no ads or otherwise unrelated distractions.

What do you mean? I just wanted to share something I am working on. Trying to understand what you meant by ads.

      That's a step further than I was thinking, but I most definitely like the direction.
