Crawly
This is a small custom crawler for greek newspaper sites. I wrote it in order to send to my dad while sailing in the ocean a short summary of greek newspaper headlines withouth having to spend a lot of bandwidth and money on huge emails, that would cost a fortune over satellite email. Crawly would pick the headlines and then crawl the actual articles, strip any html and keep the content. It would then zip the results into lightweight html pages and send an email to my dad.
