linkbackparser.py: Thanks to Phil for being cool enough to crash my parser on its first day of deployment. Oddly enough, I’ve told quite a few developers that my best skill is finding a quick way to break things.
I was already ashamed of my referrals list every time I noticed Mark Pilgrim’s “further reading” list, but now that he has added excerpts to the list, and an RSS feed of referrers, I’m so desperately far behind that I’m really going to have to revisit my 20-minute knockoff script sometime soon.
