    Perhaps consider their rss feeds?

    NYtimes.com

    <LINK rel="alternate" TYPE="application/rss+xml" TITLE="RSS" HREF="http://long_path/HomePage.xml" />
    cnn.com
    <link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="CNN - Top Stories [RSS]" href="http://long_path/cnn_topstories.rss" > <link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="CNN - Recent Stories [RSS]" href="http://long_path/cnn_latest.rss" >

    Systems development is like banging your head against a wall...
    It's usually very painful, but if you're persistent, you'll get through it.

      Assume that my sites include NYtimes.com or cnn.com and I like to get articles on regular base. My program should work for any websites rather than some specific websites.
