I'm doing some research work into content aggregators, and I'm curious how some of the current craigslist aggregators get data into their mashups. For example, www.housingmaps.com and the now closed www.chicagocrime.org If there is a URL that can be used for reference, that would be perfect! ...
I run a feed aggregator (http://planetdb2.com/) and I need to aggregate both prolific (many posts a day) and less prolific (one post a day at most) feeds. Creating a daily digest -- one post summary of the day's posts -- seems like the best solution. There's a way to create a daily digest just for Twitter feeds via Yahoo Pipes, but it...
Drupal Aggregator core module is a useful one but suffers many problems. There are many talking about improving it in Drupal 7. Right now I'm using Aggregator module which comes with Drupal 6. I'm building an aggregation site, and there is one BIG problem. Sometimes feeds contain HTML tags attributes (e.g. style, dir, title), but Aggreg...
Hi there, I'm having trouble to do something that I though it would be a 5 minutes thing. I want to create a Pipe that accepts at runtime as many URLs as needed. I know how I can combine many URLs within the editor, but I want a Pipe that anybody can configure to their needs. I thought I could use the URL Input module within a Loop, ...
I'm looking into writing a proxy aggregator for feeds, where a handful of users specify a feed URL and some set of conditions, and the system outputs a continually-updated RSS/Atom feed of entries that match those conditions. Are there best practices for feed aggregators? (Or filtering feed proxies?) For example: Are there certain fe...

I'm looking for an aggregator for the editoral and op-ed pages of a bunch of English language newspapers I want to follow. The objective is to generate an HTML that is just a collection of editorial pieces from the dozen newspapers I want to follow internationally, so that I can print them off in the morning. Since this is a very narrow...
Delphifeeds.com aggregates a large number of Delphi-related feeds that include both the official feeds from Embarcadero and independent bloggers from the community. I am looking for a similar thing for .NET and C# in particular. I am aware of course of the official Microsoft feeds, but I can't find a good repository of unaffiliated and t...

I'm interested to find out how twilio's SMS sending/receiving feature works, on long codes, or local numbers Outside of the states, mobile originated SMS terminated on a long number is very common, however, inside the US I had thought that the MMA required termination on approved shortcodes? Any ideas? Thanks ...
It could be a project well beyond my skills right now but I've got around one full month to spend on it so I think I can do it. What I want to build is this: Gather news about a specific subject from various sources. Easy, right? Just get the rss feeds and display them on a page. Well, I want something more advanced: Duplicates removed a...
Hey All, I've been messing around trying to create a social network aggregater for a while and I recently came across http://lifestream.aol.com/ and realized I'm going about it all wrong. For facebook, for example, I was using fql queries and the like to literally pull on a bunch of content and save it into my own databases etc; but th...
