awesome. seems to work in chrome just fine. I can't see how this is useful for scraping though, is there scraping software that can take css selectors as criteria?

I've previously just used mechanize/hpricot and copied the xpath from firebug to get the areas i want to scrape.

lxml.cssselect in python
