I was working on something like this last year. Took ages and eventually didn't work out.

How did you do the scraping?

Congratz on launching!

Thanks! When you tap Clear Read, the article's link is sent off to a server, which then returns the article's body in XML + formatting and images.

So you have to see the gunk page first, and then the clean version after?

I'm looking for an RSS reader that defaults to the "Reader" or "Readability" type view without the extra click.

Currently, I use Reeder.

You see the text from the RSS feed first, albeit without any HTML, then tap on Clear Read to enable the full-content view.
