What's he using to pull out the articles? I had a hacky version set up using the Readability algorithm but never bothered to make it public.

Possible to do it with Readability - my PHP port is here: http://www.keyvan.net/2010/08/php-readability/ - and similar tool (free software, can be self-hosted) using the PHP Readability here: http://fivefilters.org/content-only/

I literally cannot get nokogiri set up on my Mac for love nor money, I'm a noob whose been trying for a week or two. Tried everything. Its preventing me from running tests. Damn xmllibs2.

Install MacPorts: http://www.macports.org Add /opt/local/bin to your PATH (bashrc or zshrc or whatever you use). sudo port install libxml2 and sudo port install libxslt Then sudo gem install nokogiri --no-rdoc --no-ri should run with no issues. That's all I had to do for the system ruby (1.8.7 on OSX 10.6) and 1.9.2 via rvm.

Thanks, just saw this. I'll give it a go now, much appreciated.

Do you have XCode installed? Nokogiri is a native extension, I don't think you can build them without the compiler tools installed.

Yes I do. I'll look into this, thanks!

So it turned out it was webrat that was the problem, but your instructions actually fixed the problem! I'd researched for hours previously. Genuinely much appreciated!
