You guys ever heard of it?  I was browsing my NextTech Classifieds and saw an ad that someone will scrape data for $10 an hour..

Haven't tried it. Looking at their video it seems pretty solid.

It may get tricky if the scraped page isn't procedurally generated (ie has human error in markup) though that should be rare

Another thing is variations in output layout that might get in the way of some simple rules.

Other than that looks like it's making a decent go of making scraping easier for general purpose use.

I've used mozenda. Powerful, but fiddly to user.  I ended up using a freelancer via upwork to do it in the end.

Looks similar to Data Miner which I have used a bit.  Similarly fiddly, but useful for some types of scraping.

Rumbas

I know the guy behind:

The exact same thing. I keep thinking it could be usefull for something, but dunno what yet.

Dex one assumes you are programmer, creating vars etc

Quite hard to follow.
