Danny's Blogger-stalker "Panopticon" for the O'Reilly Emerging Technology Confernece has been turned into a Web Service, outputting to Jabber:
The data coming out of the server port is a stream of XML. Hmmm. Sounds familiar ;-) I quickly hacked together a library, Panopticon.pm, based loosely upon Jabber::Connection, a Perl library for building Jabber entities (XML streams flow over Jabber connections, too, y'know). With this quick and dirty library in hand, I wrote an equally quick and dirty script, panpush.pl, which uses Panopticon.pm and Jabber::Connection
(Thanks, Danny!)
