provides a one stop shop for job hunters, the site spiders and indexes many of the Irish job sites. One of the notable features that dole.ie provide is a RSS feed. Many of the job that it spiders do not offer this service.
According to a post over on , has been hammering dole.ie with requests for its search RSS feed. As a result dole.ie was forced to shutdown temporarily for about 12/24 hours until a solution could be found.
The interesting fact behind this saga is that irishdev.com seems to have passed all of the content off as its own, with no reference to Dole. Ok come on you steal their content … hammer their box … then pass the content off as your own! Cop on lads!
On the bright side .. IrishDev now say that they will only grab the content once every 3 hours. How nice of them! No mention of credit for the RSS or content.
