Web site that emits a continuous stream of plain text?

[Costello, Roger L.]

Hi Folks,

Recall that the Wordpress web site emits a continuous stream of XML:

http://xmpp.wordpress.com:8008/firehose.xml?type=text/plain

The new XSLT streaming capability is able to stream-process the data emitted by that web site.

Very cool.

Also, the new XSLT streaming capability is able to stream-process non-XML-formatted text. That is, XSLT streaming can process plain text.

So, I am seeking some web sites that emit a continuous stream of text. Do you know of any?

/Roger

For testing purposes could you not just treat the stream of XML as if
it were plain text?

Port scanning your local network (warning: don't do this without
permission!) may find boxes that respond to TCP connections on port 19 with
an endless stream of characters. Possible targets include older routers
and printers, which often implement obsolete guidelines.
