Is merit privilege? I think it is better to separate it from privilege and connect it to entitlement, as I argue in this post.

I have an obsession.
When I find a new interesting blog post or an interesting person's blog, I have to stop and read *all* the posts in that blog. From the very first, till the very last.

But it's so difficult to do that in the browser. So I did what every programmer does...

I searched the internet for a tool that does this. There were some, but none worked for me. So I did what every programmer does next...

I built a tool.

github.com/asdofindia/blogspot-to-ebook/

It starts from a post and keeps going to the "Older post" till it runs out of older posts.
Then, it takes all these posts and makes an epub book out of them.

Funnily enough, I used an epub generating library first which I didn't like. So I did what every programmer does...

I read the EPUB 30 specs and built an epub generating library. Right now it is embedded within the book generating code. I'll probably extract this into an npm module after some polishing.

The tool works only for blogspot as of now. Should add wordpress next.
