Weboob, the web suppository
Lecture 2010-07-09
The Web is the enemy of the productivity, of the freedom to use our prefered software, of managing data and to interact with any website out of its webmaster’s willing context. Most of all, it forces us to use web browsers, more bloated than ever.
Discover the Weboob concept and its applications enabling daily tasks such as molding on linuxfr.org, accessing our back accounts, train schedule, flirting on dating websites, weather forecasts, youporn access, managing Trac/Redmine instances and even more great usages, without leaving your terminal.
