    Backing Up Bloglines Subscriptions

    Bloglines, an online RSS feed reader, offers an easy way to export your RSS feed subscriptions in OPML format. The following extremely trivial Python script will spit out the OPML file to stdout:

    #!/usr/bin/python
    import mechanize
    
    b = mechanize.Browser()
    
    b.open("https://www.bloglines.com/export")
    
    b.select_form(name="login")
    b["email"] = "email@address"
    b["password"] = "password"
    b.submit()
    
    print b.response().read()

    Hopefully this will save someone else a few minutes of their time...
