bye bye, blo.gs
since blo.gs appears to have finally given up the ghost on monday, and the quality of its update information was deteriorating before that, so i have finally gone and implemented my own crawler to figure out update times for the sites i still care about.
it shares a bit of code with the crawler for blog-la-sphere.
i have had it in the back of my head to implement something that works more or less like blo.gs did. but first i have a wedding to enjoy.
Since blo.gs has now been irretrievably screwed up, what do I do if I want a recently-updated page which is *not* a feed reader?
Or in other words, what works like blo.gs did? Any suggestions?
