Hacker News new | ask | show | jobs

I have wanted to do something like this for news websites for a while now. I tried the recipe site, my first url from lifehacker wasn't supported, the second attempt from the curated list gave an error loading site, so maybe make the links clickable, have a top 10 ready to go ( cached) at bottom of landing page. Write a bot to periodically check the list of sites this works on and indicate how recent said check was done. Then I might spend more time. Good luck!

It's also a little weird that they lie and claim "Usually we're able to parse recipes from {{domain}}" no matter what domain you put in. This really rubbed me the wrong way.
