Hi All,

Thought people might be interested in this (somewhat tech-y) post on
doing web scraping with Node JS (re UK Crime and for OpenTed) that
I've just posted on School of Data blog:

<http://schoolofdata.org/2013/01/22/web-scraping-with-css-selectors-in-node-js-using-jsdom-or-cheerio/>

This is based on some personal experience as a Node JS novice last
Autumn working with UK Crime data and OpenTED (tenders electronic
daily).

Regards,

Rufus
