(2003-01-23) Mark Pilgrim Rss Parsing

Mark Pilgrim article on parsing invalid RSS (as a fallback), including Python code. I also just tested the 100 most recently updated RSS feeds listed on blo.gs (a weblog tracking site); 14 were not well-formed XML. Perhaps a bigger problem is the number of sites (like this one, plus all Blogger-based blogs) which have no RSS at all.
