I was wondering if there is an application, and if not if it’s worth writing one, that can gather meaningful data from old e-mails. I’m thinking things like:
- Instructions (that could become “5 steps to…” posts)
- Definitions
etc
Any idea? Suggestions? etc?
Well, I can offer the same solution as I did to this post, that is software like TexLexan or Alchemy API that can find keywords and other summary information. There is also a good list of open source and commercial solutions on this page. Definitely easier to see if one of those works then writing your own.
