Anyone scraping in Perl? I've found pQuery very useful. (I tried it in node.js to stay cool, but async scraping is an anti-pattern) You can use jQuery selectors, etc... Just posted something related to it on by blog: scrape with pQuery, dump into Redis, reformat into CSV then into mysql...

I also use Perl for web scraping, never heard of pQuery though, I use HTML::TokeParser or HTML::TreeBuilder::XPath.
