A few years ago I wrote a little Perl script called ‘timesScraper’ that grabs the top stories from the New York Times’ RSS feeds. The idea was I could use it to download local copies of the day’s news for reading on my laptop when I was away from an internet connection.
More details and the download after the jump.

WordRecorder was a program I wrote for my friend Matt to help him record hundreds of spoken names for his video e-card site. It’s a pretty specialized program and I doubt more than a handful of people out there will actually have a need for it, but the source code may be of use to people trying to figure out how to use Apple’s CoreAudio Frameworks and the Qt Interface Toolkit.
I’ll try to post more details about its design and how it works in the coming days. For now, visit the main WordRecorder page here.
