Is it be possible to purchase a small scale search spider (not just a browser), to produce similar results, and then to use those links in one's own webmaster newsletter, without violating copyright, trademark or infringing on the source at the original site?
Maybe this could be done on the major search engines, if one becomes very proficient at doing searches, which I'm not well-defined searches, something I'm still learning.
Any thoughts, tips, help?
From paragraph 2.2:
>The Links will only display each headline during the day or days such headline appears on the Publisher's Site and You may not otherwise display such headlines on Your Site at any other time.
If you stick the links into a newsletter, you're going to be displaying things that are out of date. I read it as a no-no.
My post didn't come out as clearly as I had intended. Can you recommend a spider that could search in the background and come up with current news (for example, webmaster tips)? I can do the searches via the major search engines, but I don't seem to get the results I want. I would like to search on a single day and get the freshest news, not pages that have been indexed for years.
Just a thought.

I think I understand. :-) As I read through the conditions, the LINKS moreover.com offers via their news service are only protected if one is posting them via their news service to one's site. So, it looks like an ethical solution to not sign up for moreover's service, but one can still use their website to find the links and use them accordingly.
Does that sound like a solution?
We subscribe to one such newsletter (third party like you) that just sends us the daily links direct from a Moreover feed. So obviously you CAN do it, but probably have to pay or come to some agreement.
You gottit!

They make their money on people subscribing to services above and beyond the basic freebies and there is a good selection of freebies to pick from. Take a look.
