We see lots of stuff in the ScrapeDiary community, everything from financial data, to company data for lead generation, competitor analysis and research, through to price comparisons for e-commerce.
What are you using to run your email extractions? And what sites do you normally do this from? For me, I've used Tripadvisor a lot to extract business and contact details from
I tested out DataGrab with a variety of use cases, such as:
(*) For CodeRanch, I did a quite advanced thing (maybe fairly standard, in fact?): starting with the top page (that lists threads), I scraped every thread for posts, but only extracted new posts at each run. This was somewhat challenging because the list of threads was constantly reordered by the latest post's date. I exposed this feature in DataGrab as "Incremental Mode" but since nobody ever used it, I dropped it at some point (maybe the naming was bad?).
Anyways, I'm really happy that we can share our use cases. What I need the most is real-world use cases to test my tool against.
So keep these reports going! ;)
No email for me. I'm more into aggregating data.
