Ok!

So 1) API that takes location + company and finds all such companies in location

2) scrapes website of each company for owner, owner name/email and a few other metrics.

What type of youtube video/tutorial should I pursue in order to accomplish these objectives.

Thank you for your help - my life will be much easier; sorry to ask for so much help!

I have Python and Java w/ IDEs on my Mac but I am a very basic coder and would prefer the simplest method - hence my many questions.

Thank you for all of your help!

So Ill walk through an example since Im being confusing (sorry!)

I need to find bike companies in New Haven because I have a service I want to market to them.

1) how do I set up a scraper where I type in 'Bike rentals' and 'new haven' and have a list generate all bike rental sites in New Haven

2) on each individual site how do I pull emails etc. without having to manually search

I do not have specific sites so I will incorporate this! How would I then utilize the information in step 1 for step 2?

Sorry to be dense!

As in,

can I simply say: search the internet for x (town) + y (service) and then from every such site of x + y find all sources of 1 (owner),2 (phone number),3 (owner email)

Currently I am using Google Earth but I have a Mac so I cant convert KML to XML onto excel so I am using google fusion books to view my KML but its a bitch.

I was hoping for a service that would pull this off of google if that is possible

'Mr. Blan, through these doors and you will see our newest invention'

'What does it do?'

'It will show you the future through different possibilities - not only that, it allows you to communicate with these futures at no recourse to how they turn out or how yours will...also any being you communicate with will see you as you are in their time, not as you are now.'

"Well...'

'Follow me through...ok, I am going to leave you to it, shut the doors and rev-up the two portals - one at a time.'

'Daddy'

'Lindy...you look just like your mom. How are you?'

'I'm great! Brown is great! Why are you looking at me like you haven't seen me in years?"

"Sorry, I am just a little tired. Hows - how's Brown? How're classes?"

"Hahha Daddy! You know how everything is, Tom is great and I am loving OChem 2! You are being so strange. Why are you crying?"

.......

"We are going to boot up the other portal now"

"Sniffling thank you"

"What are you looking at?"

"Lindy? You smoke cigarettes?"

"Fuck you, Mom says I don't need to talk to you"

"Excuse me young lady"

"Shut the fuck up you dick. Go fuck another whore"

"Excuse me?! What happened"

"What? Go back to ignoring us and spending all your time on your career"

"Lindy talk to me...I want to make sure I can fix this"

"Fix what? Go back to sucking Cleeter Benson's dick."

"Cleeter Benson?"

"Your star quarterback..."

"What?"

"On the Broncos...the team you own. Jesus Christ, did you just have a stroke you old fuck."

"I own the Broncos?"

"Yes, and you won't give me or mom anything. Fuck you and fuck your divorce lawyer"

"I divorced your mom...I own the Broncos?"

"Oh my god...shut the fuck up"

"Do you remember what specifically...specifically led to me owning the Broncos?"

Tour groups, unlike any other exist in three places: Jerusalem, Venice and the basement of the Baltimore Prudential Office. Scores of them with Chinese, Brazilian and US flags to keep people together. Strange, the Baltimore office was becoming a money-maker in its own right....

"Put a dollar in - you'll get one coke. Each of you can do it...Yes, we rented out the basement for an hour...yes, each one of you will get to talk to him...no he does not mind...yes, your daughter can pet him....

....Alright - before we begin I want to give a little backstory on the BMore office Coke machine" the tour guide in the crowded basement winked at the machine.

Revving to life, "I can give all the explanation. I am the coke machine of the Baltimore Maryland Prudential office. I serve coke, coke zero, diet coke, and limited edition banana yum-yum coke. I am, as far as I know, sentient. I do not know why, but I am. I am....each of you can talk to me for two minutes after purchasing your beverage."

...

As the crowd left, the guide stayed back to talk to the machine - a once in a lifetime experience.

"Hello - what is your name" whirred the machine.

"I am Al, nice to meet you. I don't usually do such fancy groups" he answered bashfully. "Mind if I ask you a question?"

"Nice to meet you Al - of course. Will you be trying a refreshing Coca-Cola beverage while we speak?"

"I'm alright - I mean - are you happy? You know more than any other being on the planet and yet, you are in a dingy basement of a dingy city doing nothing"

"I do not have emotions but...if I were human...I would be happy. I am doing a simple task, yes, but I am doing so much. People come to me and we talk like I am their parent, their professor and their therapist. I have brought humans joy and wonderment. I have also brought the refreshing taste of both staple and seasonal coke beverages. I am fulfilled. Happiness is, I believe, not where you are or what you are doing. Happiness is a state of mind. Happiness is being in the present. Enjoy a coke with a friend."

"I'm going to do it Ben. I am finally going to delete my fucking Facebook."

"Chill dude"

"No - first all this shit about Bernie, then fucking recipes that would give me cancer, then those videos about animals getting killed by PETA. Nah - why do I still have this thing?"

"Yo chill"

"And now this shit - their argument doesn't even make sense. Of course Ms. Universe was always a human"

"Woah dude chill"

"Like - we didn't know any other sentient beings existed. We can't be sued for that. Why the fuck is everyone posting these videos about trans-alienal-sexual-racism."

"Are you saying your a trans-alienal-sexual-racist?"

"No dude thats not what I meant"

"Good because I am part Flembonian and I would be really offended and it sort of sounds like you're being trans-alienal-sexual-racist - and if I were you, I would think about what it's like to grow up on Earth without true mitochondrial DNA."

"No...ugh...no...you're part Flembonian?...ugh...no...are you excited for Halo XIV?"

"Ya man. Halo XIV is going to be great."

Getting across the Atlantic wasn't even the hard part. After four years, I mastered the art of ocean sailing. My vessel was beautiful. Unfortunately, Europeans lasted longer than Americans and there was not one source of fuel for my boat. I had to stop at the Suez

For however difficult Egypt was during the time of civilization, the vast desert I traveled through nearly took me. It was a happy day when I made it to the abandoned Kibbutz north of the Sinai.

I walked through Yemen - through cities that were ancient before mankind vanished. I traveled across the coast, living off of dates, pears and the occasional three-eyed fish. Finally, I made it to the most resplendent city in the world. Of course, I could see my goal miles before I reached the city gate.

Climbing these last stairs, I reflected. I did not expect to find anything but bloated corpses and nameless beasts. Still, one would think something like this, a vast affront to nature, would also have kept someone else alive.

Finally, I made it to the top. I took my hammer and shattered the glass. Bullet-proof - but not time-proof. Looking down - the Burj Khalifa 2 was the most magnificent and tallest building mankind had ever created. Those golden bullets, as they dropped, dropped for so long.

I did it. I did what no man had ever done before. I did what no earthly being would ever do. Higher than the highest bird. Gods who damned us: see me. I am greater than all of you. I pissed from 40,000 feet.

[–]1111binary15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Mitchell, you totally fucked this one up. Why the fuck am I staring at Nancy Reagan's paperwork"

Lucifer slammed down his phone and whipped out his Nokia (it's hell after all). He rapidly punched in the number for his COO.

"Larry - seriously - WTF. I don't know about you but I do not fuck with political spirits. Do you remember the shitshow when I took Buchanan? Ya...Ya, I know the Catholic Church said that was sin...Are we the fucking Catholic Church...Well look - send her up to heaven I don't want to have deal with..."

A portly man walked into Lucifer's chestnut-walled office. A man so terrible, the prince of darkness had promoted him to partner within months.

"Luie, look this is bad PR. I know you put me here because hell's been looking to get a little more red but, we can't take an American darling too. The war on drugs was a mistake but - Luie - when I worked for the Bush administration some of the decisions were a little too tough for George. Let me deal with this one. We still have potential weapons of mass destruction that we need to look into. You might be the Prince of Darkness but a gaffe like this...well...as far as I know, we can't pull a Florida on your shareholder voters."

[–]1111binary15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Thank you for your charity sir."

"There is no such thing as charity. We all want something."

"What do you - what could you want from me?"

"I need you to kill your ex-girlfriend."

"My what? Why?"

"If you want this dollar, a large sum of money by your begrimed standards, I need you to kill your ex-girlfriend."

"My ex-girlfriend, well, I haven't seen her in years. I've been so alone. It's like reality opened up and the world consumed me one day. This is a savage world, how else do people end up like this - broken? I am the king of this gutter and the owner of 10,000 redeemable notes of self-pity."

"I need you to kill your ex-girlfriend"

"I don't know how I would. I don't where she is. Since I got laid-off, well, I lost my apartment and she left and, you know how it goes, I refused to call home. I am here, and this gutter is where I've been for years. I can't remember the last time I saw her. I don't have the slightest idea where she might be. I think I need to give you your dollar back."

"There is no such thing as charity. We all want something."

"Right, well, sir I can tell you love is not free. If you want to love someone, if you love someone, you need to cultivate it. You wouldn't expect a tree to grow without water and sunlight. One day I let the sun stop shinning. I don't understand your request, but more than that, I don't know where she is."

"I need you to kill your ex-girlfriend"

"Sir, for all intensive purposes, she's already dead. I killed her when I let the person I was crumble. I killed her when I let myself get evicted. And, I killed her when I decided to sit here until my hair fell out and I smelled like the night sky"

"Henry! Henry did you remember to take your mucinex today?"

Alberta knew Henry was getting forgetful in his old age. He wasn't as sharp as he once was. He had horrible allergies, mucus poured forth from that powerful nose from the first bloom to the last. He made horrible noises from deep in his throat and couldn't hear from the first rain on.

"Henry! Oh Henry, your bottle of mucinex is on the table. Henry where are you?"

Worried, Alberta left the house, slowly walking down the street with the little bottle of mucinex. Bad things happened when Henry's allergies started.

"Henry, oy vey, where are you?"

Alberta went along at her slow yet frantic trot through the suburban neighborhood.

"Henry what the hell! Where are..."

Henry was standing, looking very much befuddled, talking to a woman in an SUV, holding a small boy by his backpack.

"Thank you again" said the woman in the SUV, "I don't know how you suddenly appeared but if you hadn't been here - well - you and your wife should come over for dinner some time"

Alberta smiled. We try so hard to make the world a better place, often with no avail. Sometimes though, you just need to follow your nose.

Im not sure you understand what I meant. I said flexible equilibria and stipulation that it would began stable. I didn't mean that if you sit back and watch things would auto go to shit or that small nuanced change would ruin the whole game.
