Thanks for posting the app. I wish more arc apps would pop up like this.
Some things I noticed beyond the obvious buttons being buttons:
It would be nice to have some default or optional filters so porn feeds and such can be filtered.
I am still trying to figure out if it works as it supposed to or not. The site says to input your favorite
site or blogger, so I put in the following sites/cases and here are the results:
http://arclanguage.org -> Hmm, this may suck....
http://arclanguage.org/forum -> Hmm, this may suck....
http://arclanguage.org/rss -> Hmm, this may suck....
arclanguage -> Hmm, this may suck....
arclanguage.org -> Hmm, this may suck....
arc language -> found article on arcfn which only talks about arduino
peace -> Aero Snap makes Australian Open TV cameo
http://www.google.com/finance -> TurboTax 2009 Discounts For Early Birds
My Money Blog (nothing to do with google)
So is this expected? If so why?
Also... A few times I tried the page stopped responding or took a really long time.
Yes I noticed the timeouts in the logs. I'm going to look into that.
Arc language forum wasn't in the feeds I crawled (I should have checked this one term, d'uh!), so the program doesn't know anything about, hence the 'this may suck' message.
Peace: I'm trying to be smarter than just matching on keywords. That didn't pay off here.
with google.com/finance, it tried to find finance news. It's smart enough to know that that URL isn't about google.. will you try that station again, vote on a few stories, tell me what you thought?
Will you try out a few more blog/site titles? I'd love to get the coverage of my crawler stress-tested like this :) Thanks for trying it out like this.
Re the porn feeds: I'm just not going there. I noticed one feed that had slipped through in the logs this morning, and I've deleted it, so it shouldn't show up again.
thx - that's what I had in mind -> to filter them out. I should have chosen my words more carefully. :) I was kinda shocked to see the link pass by in the ticker bar. Though I must admit I did click the link just to make sure it was what I thought it was.... consider it testing. :) lol.
