The title seems misleading. Unless I'm missing something, all he did was scrape a news feed, which should only require a couple days of work to set up.

The fact that he left it running for years without finding the time to do anything with the data isn't that interesting.

Yes, his #1 advice should be "do something with the data you collected".
