I haven't had the chance to look at that issue yet, I'm a little behind in my reading ( about three months). I just read the issue that had the scraping article last week. Can't wait to read the next one.

Tom,
I just got this issue and it is the second in the series. I gave it a quick read just now and it takes you through making your own scraper and using it. Very well written with lots of pictures.
