Title: Helium Scraper (has anybody tried?) Post by: Phinnaeus Gage on May 29, 2012, 01:11:42 AM I'm looking into purchasing a copy of Helium Scraper (http://www.heliumscraper.com) to use with Craigslist since the previous product I purchased has gone defunct (CraigsPal (http://craigspal.com/)). I know I can use Google Reader with Craigslist RSS feed, but was wondering about this product of which I've just stumbled upon. It seems like a powerful tool, wondering if I could also use it to extrapolate information from BlockChain or the like.
Looking forward to the replies. Thank you in advance. ~Bruno~ Title: Re: Helium Scraper (has anybody tried?) Post by: Raoul Duke on May 29, 2012, 01:59:54 AM Can this do what you want http://www.blackhatautomation.com/craigslistreverse ?
I can vouch for the company. Own several licenses of their softwares for a couple years and they get updated regularly, whenever they stop working. Title: Re: Helium Scraper (has anybody tried?)

I was hooked on CraigsPal, but now I need a similar service to hunt barn wood ads. I may have to bite the bullet and set up Google Reader for RSS feeds from all the regions on Craigslist that I purchase from. |
