Wouldn't it be neat if there was an artificial intelligence that could read blogs, forums and other sites and post the stories to its own blog? No? Oh. Er, well, we thought it would be neat. So we tried to make one. It's a start.

autopost.php
Programmatically read an RSS feed, parse the items and post them to a blog, using the same interface a human would, so they look like "real" posts.
