Turn HTML into RSS in five minutes

That's right five minutes, sounds too good to be true doesn't it? Well the Knowledge Thoughts blog has very kindly reported on a new site called Dapper. I know it has a funny name but what it produces and the speed at which it can produce results are amazing. What are you waiting for, go...now.

Thanks James appreciate the link. I don't know if you've tried it, but it is fantastic.

I also used the tool to create a feed of ISO Country Codes (although I haven't shared it due to T&C's from ISO), which means a host of available standards become live data sources for programmers.

One example might be to create a Dapp of NAICS industry classification data for use in an in-house application. No need to migrate the data in-house (which would require an interface, developers, system admins). Instead, the data becomes available today.
