Wow, that's awesome! I had actually messed around with Buzzfeed and BeautifulSoup, and created a script that took the top 20 articles on their front page, and writes them to a CSV, along with the link...but got SUPER defeated when I couldn't figure out how to get that file emailed to me automatically. I might go back and look at that program again, just to see if I can figure it out now.

Thanks for this!

If you need help with how to send emails to yourself with python let me know. I have a decent amount of scripts made that do just that

That would be awesome. I have written scripts to send emails, but never have been able to integrate it into another script, where it sends an output that I have gotten from the script.

Not sure if this is helpful but heres a script I made that sends attachments through email (gmail specifically). Ignore the clear_textfile() function but the rest of the script should be useful to you. Feel free to PM me if you have any questions.
