It used to be easy to scrape a site, at least, when I still used a PC as my primary machine. Now that I'm operating with OS X it's gotten a little harder.
I scrape sites so I can take them with me on my laptop and figure out little details without having to be connected to the Web. So now I'm engaged in a hunt for a scraping tool that will function well under OS X. I used to use Anawave Websnake under Windows.. I may yet have to fire up Virtual PC and use it under that -- what a hack.
