indyz 1 #1 January 19, 2003 Skydive News It's a web site that I put together over the last couple of days. It scrapes Google News for skydiving stories and merges them into one page. Updates every 15 minutes. Has a FAQ. If you see any errors or have suggestions, send me an email or a PM. Bonus points for coming up with a better name for the page. The whole thing is really just a demo to test a PHP module that I wrote, but I'll leave it running unless it starts to eat into my bandwidth limit. P.S. - Currently there are 160 stories in the database. The sixth hit is DiverDriver's article about the 300-way from this site. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BadDog 0 #3 January 19, 2003 How about a nifty little logo or banner that I can put on my site to link to yours? It would be a shame to have to use a text link. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
riddler 0 #4 January 19, 2003 Nice work Indyz. You should consider marketing this to industry experts. Replace "skydive" with "coffee" and sell it as a service to the marketing people at Starbuck's. Marketing people will buy anything.Trapped on the surface of a sphere. XKCD Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sharpfive 0 #5 January 19, 2003 Great idea. You could call it something catchy and easy to remember, like theburble.com. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
