GWG
[chrisaldrich]: I've made some further mods to Parse This.
#
GWG
Covers events, flash videos in RSS for Youtube feeds, expanding known URL shorteners in summary content, Instagram Photo parsing, Lat and Lng for Foursquare venues...
#
GWG
All sorts of little tweaks
#
[chrisaldrich]
GWG++ does this mean I should redownload the master branch of Parse This again?

GWG has 62 karma in this channel over the last year (136 in all channels)
#
GWG
[chrisaldrich]: You can
#
GWG
I'm still plowing forward
#
GWG
I was inspired to see if I could turn a meetup event page into a feed as well

[chrisaldrich]
That's a cool thing, I'd use that....
#
GWG
[snarfed]: You coded posse post discovery. What did you learn?
#
[snarfed]
it's a lot of work
#
GWG
[snarfed]: Looked like it. I just got as far as expanding Twitter links and decided to punt on figuring out if they were actually a permalink
#
[snarfed]
doable! just takes a ton of effort to get it robust, reliable, efficient, and supporting enough variety of cases
#
GWG
I should look at your code.
#
GWG
[chrisaldrich]: I support individual event parsing now using JSON-LD. So it should be quick.
#
GWG
[chrisaldrich]: Feel free to throw more sites at me. I'm on a bridging kick
#
GWG
[snarfed]: I would settle for URLs at end of tweets.
#
[snarfed]
GWG wait, you mean posse post discovery? or original post discovery?
#
GWG
[snarfed]: Original post discovery. Excuse me
#
[snarfed]
the former is just u-syndication links, right?
#
GWG
I'm mixing my post discoveies.
#
[snarfed]
ah. yes. that's what i meant too. doable but a big project.
#
GWG
[snarfed]: Wndering if there is part of it I can easily implement.
#
[snarfed]
most of bridgy's code for it is in https://github.com/snarfed/bridgy/blob/master/original_post_discovery.py , largely written by kylewm
#
GWG
a subset
#
GWG
I'll see if I get ideas.
#
[snarfed]
eh, you can do a small end to end prototype maybe reasonably, but that would still be basically the whole thing. i don't know that there's a subset, really

Will see. At least I figured out how to expand URLs using WordPress
