Scrape the Web: Strategies for programming websites that don't expect it

I just received this email:

From: Greg Lindstrom
To: Tutorial List

Hello,

On behalf of the PyCon Tutorial Selection Committee, I'd like to inform you that you have been selected to present at least 1 tutorial at PyCon 2009 in Chicago. We had 50 proposals for the 32 available slots and many good proposals had to be rejected.

It means:

I get to stand in front of people I don't know in Chicago and talk about web scraping!

(Unless the talk is canceled because no one signs up.)

So I guess it means I'll be going to PyCon 2009! It's in Chicago, from March 25 to April 2. If you'll be there, too, drop me a line!
