AboutYouMeEverything? · posted by vaibhav bhawsar Mar 05, 2007
So I wrote a google search based scraping program for the Programming A to Z midterm. The idea was to find as much as one could about a person through the internet. The scraping program would rummage through texts online and bring back every sentence in which your name appeared. So for example if you entered your name it would bring back to you all the sentences online which had your name in it. I initially intended this to work specifically on a social network- more in the spirit of bringing back all the conversations about you (or even someone else).
