Is there a print version of Podcasting?

This is a weird concept to nail down in a few words.

Is there a service that will print out feeds daily? On physical paper?

For example:

(Link is NSFSL - Not Safe For Sudoku Lovers)

has a TON of puzzles, about 25 free weekly.

Is there any program that can go and print them out, much like a Podcatcher does for Podcasts?

And that begs, does said program do the same for other sites, etc?

I wouldn’t mind having it ‘virtual’ but puzzles and I’m sure some other diversions don’t translate as well as regular text does online.

An RSS feed will send them to your computer, but you’ll still have to be the one to print them out, though I suppose that there are DIY ways of automating the process. I imagine that when someone finally comes up with a decent ebook reader, you’ll see “bookcasting” software (assuming there isn’t already).

There is a Slate daily papers “Textcast,” which updates like a regular podcast to your iPod, but doesn’t contain any audio. It instead uses the “notes” function to provide a detailed, yet summarized look at the front pages of several major daily newspapers. Something like this, combined with a script running on your machine could probably do what you want.

So, it’s possible, but I don’t know of anyone doing it.

Hmm, I’m seeing a Web 2.0 start up company shortly to be gobbled up by Google/Yahoo/Microsoft for big buck$$$. I’m thinking we need to be the one’s to start it! Who’s with me?

I don’t know about printouts, but you can do something similar with a PDA. For years I’ve been using AvantGo on various PDAs (currently Palm TX). I think of it as a text version of Podcast - the PDA downloads text from selected web sites every time I sync with the desktop.
