I decided it would be a fun hack to create an rss filter removes the duplicates from the feed. I had also coincidently just begun learning ruby. It was also Christmas, time of indulgence followed by bloat. The result is tofu.
Tofu is a tv aggregator, gathering tidbits information about tv shows from around the world wide web and cook them together into one pleasing whole.
Tofu is currently 0.2 releases old. Tofu can
- Retrieve information about past and upcoming episodes of "The Colbert Report" from tv.com
- Retrieve Colbert Report torrents from mininova
- Combine the two together
- Output an rss feed of torrents, without duplicate episodes
Some meaty code and stuff coming soon...
[Update: 24/04/07: For the inquisitive, the code is now available. I'm working on a new version in the v4 branch to be released sometime soon]

Any chance of seeing the code then? You know you want too :) A few other Northern Ireland Rails developers are interested in something similar...
