Dot Cat

Some likely-Bond-villain tech wiz took the time to insert cat gifs and pictures into a NYTimes homepage screen: http://t.co/VR0BAhGmJj

This is the script i used to create nytimes.cat. It's powered by meowbify.com.

It downloads their site and uploads it to an Amazon S3 bucket which i configured to be a website.

That's it.

I use it like this:

./dot-cat.sh nytimes

or like this for cnn.cat:

./dot-cat.sh cnn
#!/bin/sh
curl http://cat.www.$1.com.meowbify.com/ > index.html
s3cmd put index.html s3://$1.cat/
