skimpage — consume fresh and fat-free page
skimpage.comPasted a URI, hit return, got "Processing...", then nothing further happened.
The console (Firebug on FF25) shows the following error:
422 Unprocessable Entity
{"error":"Could not get any feed"}skimpage works by parsing feed url from a page. Not all pages include feed url unfortunately.
You can try other news website or paste feed URL directly. Then you will get something like this. http://skimpage.com/feeds/524f94b811c69d220b000001
Aha. I thought it would make a single article "skimmable" -- I didn't realize this was about feeds.
At the very least it should capture the error and give some kind of feedback.
Added error message. Thanks!
very nice. especially for a first iteration.
made kottke.org even better...

Thanks. I wanted to try Node.js. I thought since something like skimpage requires a lot of http calls, it will be suitable to use node.
