Google XML feeds - do they stop servers accessing feeds?
Hi

Does anyone know if Google stop servers from accessing their XML feeds? :/

Using this code:

Code:
my $page = get(qq|http://news.google.com/news?hl=en&ned=us&ie=UTF-8&output=rss&q=Running%20Scared|);
print "PAGE: $page";

..just gives:

Quote:
URL: http://news.google.com/news?hl=en&ned=us&ie=UTF-8&output=rss&q=Running Scared
PAGE:

i.e $page is blank.

i.e even tried it with wget -

Code:
my $page = `wget -O/web/sites/user/domain.com/cgi-bin/admin/Plugins/file.xml "$feed_url"`;

..and file.xml is made - but just blank :|

TIA
