Dapper.net is one I used in the past but had not had much success with. Here is a very good post on the subject in general.

Good post! Are there any sites that reads html and convert them into RSS feed? I mean tools?

I don’t see how crawling RSS feeds can be illegal; after all; sites are making these available. If they didn’t want people to read/aggregate them, they wouldn’t make them available.

What is the legality of crawling rss feeds? Is this legal? I know craigslist is against crawlers.

Hi Yan,

Thanks for the post.

A lot of the errors came from the reddit-style voting, which brought a huge overhaul to the core programming. It should be weeded out over time.

There are cool plans for more innovative features to come.
