I'm re-posting this message since I didn't get an answer the first
time and I'm nothing if not persistent!

Let me recast the original question differently. Is there a fairly
easy way, using Factor, to scrape a blog website for a list of blog
titles? This seems like it would be a really useful tool for finding
information, assuming the author chose fairly meaningful titles.

I'm no expert in web technology, but it occurs to me, as I think about
this problem, that it might be kind of difficult in the general case.
I have no idea how similar different blogs might be. For now, I'm most
interested in the special case of John Benediktsson's "Re:Factor"
blog.

Thanks,

-John

John,

Is there a way to get an index (one line per blog entry) of all your
posts? Google Reader used to do that for me. Feedly provides a nice
listing, but it only goes back about a year (I don't know about other
RSS readers - anybody care to suggest a better one?). The search
feature is appreciated, but is not always what I need, because often I
don't know what to call what I'm looking for.

Your blog has been an invaluable source of information (and sometimes
inspiration!) for me. Thanks for your efforts.

-John

P.S. Chris Double's blog is also quite helpful and this link:
http://www.bluishcoder.co.nz/tags/factor/ , presents a nice index.
