In the spirit of continuing to aggregate data that’s useful for consumers online, we’ve put together a post-christmas sales guide at Judy’s Book. The data are based on sale information printed in newspaper circulars. As someone who almost never buys the paper any more, putting this information online in an easily accessible form was terrific.

In an effort to create a lightweight way to launch it, Alex came up with an XML driven application that generates pages with navigation ready for deployment. This is fantastic because it allowed us to create the list without sucking up a lot of development cycles (which are always in short supply at any startup).
