#50: Web scraping at scale with Scrapy and ScrapingHub

What do you do when you are working with an amazing web application that, for whatever reason, doesn't have an API? One option is to say I wish that site had an API and give up. Or, you could use scrapy, an open source web scraping framework from Pablo Hoffman and [scrapinghub.com](scrapinghub.com) and create your own API!
