In my current project, I am working to predict critical restaurant violations. This was started under the assumption that the data was available. During my expoloratory phase, I discovered the data I was relying on had stopped updating. In order to proceed with the data set I wanted, I needed to do some scraping.

One morning I woke up and found this had been sent to from someone that knew what I was up to.

If you are interested in scraping, definitely take some time to read the link. David Eads totally blew my mind with that example of data scraping.
