News grabber plug-in?

Fanny Cradock · 2011-05-23 11:35:55

Assuming such a thing even exists, I'm looking for a plug-in for a CMS (preferably for Concrete5) that will grab news items that contain preselected keywords and automatically post them.

Sort of a roundabout way of doing it but you could do a Google (news) search for the keyword, grab the url of the RSS feed for that term, and then use rss2html.php to convert it to html.

It would be all completely automated once you've set it up.
