Research direction

No source file or test is named in the issue. Start by reviewing the package's existing Node and feedparser integration, then define the server interface and deployment approach. Done means a web-accessible server implementation exists and its source can be deployed independently.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Scott Block suggested creating a server version of the reallysimple parser so you don't have to deploy a server every time you need to parse a feed. Good idea. Ultimately I'd like to have a version that runs directly in the browser, but since it depends on the feedparser package, which is only available for Node, at this time it's not practical.

So I will provide a server implementation that can be accessed over the web and of course provide the source so you can deploy it yourself, esp if operating the server consumes a lot of resources.
