Hello to all, i've got an issue: i need to dowload a huge number of blogs (something like 10.000 blogs) to make statistical analysis. (Data mining) I read the Java API section but i only found information on how to develop application to add posts to blogs, nothing to analyze them.
long story short: Do you know if is it possible to download many posts made in a day from many blogs on blogger, and put them in a database to do some data mining? Thanks to all, Marco
Hi Marco,
The API is typically used to interact with a specific blog, or the blogs that belong to one user, but I imagine you may find the Atom feeds for these blogs to be useful. Each blog has an Atom feed, so it seems like what you really need is a way to discover new posts or new blogs.
Before getting too far though, I'd recommend that you take a look at the terms of service to make sure that your use case is allowable: http://www.blogger.com/terms.g
Happy coding,
Jeff
