What I really, really want
I’ve been playing with Google Custom Search and although it’s good it would be much better if it could recognize metadata in microformats, RDF, or any other formats that metadata might be found in. And if it could also scrape data off web pages using regular expressions (sort of like Feed43 but better). And if you could create custom search fields and define how they map to Google Base fields, Freebase fields, metadata tags, and scraped data.
And I want the moon on a stick.

Hiya! I’ve been using Feedity – http://www.feedity.com for creating custom RSS feeds from web page. It works well and it is very simple to use. Check it out sometime. Chao :)

Thanks for the suggestion. Feedity and Yahoo Pipes could be exactly what I’m looking for.
