Yeah, but we can throw most of that snippet out the window now, as Vroom has told me about http://perlmonks.org/headlines.rdf

So here is the rewritten snippet. (Note that it now retrieves 12 headlines instead of 10. Or how many ever Vroom decides to put into headlines.rdf)

use LWP::Simple; $/ = undef; my $slurp = get("http://www.perlmonks.org/headlines.rdf"); push @node, [$1,$2] while $slurp =~ /<item>\s*<title\s*>([^<]*)<\/title>\s*<link\s*>([^< +]*)/gio; print map { "<a href=\"$_->[1]\">$_->[0]</a>\n" } @node;
