skimpage — consume fresh and fat-free page

Pasted a URI, hit return, got "Processing...", then nothing further happened.

The console (Firebug on FF25) shows the following error:

    422 Unprocessable Entity
    {"error":"Could not get any feed"}

skimpage works by parsing feed url from a page. Not all pages include feed url unfortunately.

You can try other news website or paste feed URL directly. Then you will get something like this. http://skimpage.com/feeds/524f94b811c69d220b000001

Aha. I thought it would make a single article "skimmable" -- I didn't realize this was about feeds.

At the very least it should capture the error and give some kind of feedback.

Added error message. Thanks!

very nice. especially for a first iteration.

made kottke.org even better...

i want to see more of this.

Thanks. I wanted to try Node.js. I thought since something like skimpage requires a lot of http calls, it will be suitable to use node.
