I really like the idea; definitely could have used this in several of my projects over the years. It'd be cool if there were more use cases to give a better picture of what all is possible with the scraping service. That's what drew me into IFTTT when I first visited their website. The example of getting the title tag from the website wasn't that exciting :) . And any chances of a trial period?? I'd be more willing to pay after seeing a functioning implementation in my website/app.

- malandrew 13y agoA headless webkit browser like PhantomJS can scrape pages that render themselves via javascript.
