Here's a [blog post about it](http://david.dlma.com/blog/my-techcrunch-feed-filter). # History This was originally archived in a Subversion repo. I'd forgotten about the version control and had gotten into the habit of just modifying the production site. * 2010-09-03: Original * 2010-09-03: Save off the disqus identifier for use later. * 2011-02-04: Algorithm changes (tags and author checked), new chart drawing, spaces used instead of tabs. * 2011-02-04: Update to the chart drawing algorithm. * 2013-08-04: Miscellaneous changes to techcrunch.py * 2015-11-23: Resync svn with production site. * 2015-11-27: Remove obsolete disqus and retweet code, and refactor style to be more PEP-8ish. # Is it any good? [Yes](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3067434). # Licence This software uses the [MIT license](http://git.dlma.com/techcrunch.git/blob/master/LICENSE.txt)
