    Good free web scraper?

    Didn't want to take this to the think tank just to be told to fukk off.

    I am using Web Harvery currently, and wondering if there are other ones people on this site use.

    Data mine, nothing more. Gathers a bunch of info, so I can throw it into a spread sheet.

    Keeps me from having to do more manual work than necessary.

    If your final destination is Excel, you can actually do it without any 3rd party software; see here:
