For those of you who are interested, the Linux convert has fought its way into the 21st century and now boasts an XML (RSS) feed for you to extract the information and any new articles into your own scripts or feedreaders.
The feed is available at http://linux.sci-tech.co.uk/rss/linuxconvert.xml and follows the RSS 2.0 specification. It is realeased under a relaxed creative commons licence and you may use the information as you wish – although you must attribute the original source.
If you do come up with any cool applications let us know and we can showcase them here.
