The script starts by pulling an existing article archive CSV file and checks every new Invoke-Webrequest article against it. It then strips the duplicates and processes the new articles. After it's done processing and formatting the articles' output, it checks to see if there are at least 15 new articles. If so, continues with the script while adding the new articles to the archive. Then the script finds the most common title words, groups the articles based on those top 10 keywords, and begins formatting each article for its HTML section. Once completed, then emails me the completed article.
I've cut the script into several sections because if its length. This way you can scroll horizontally as needed without having to go to the bottom of the page. I've also included an example of the output created by this script. Open it with a browser to see how it looks. It may not suit everyone but I wanted a down and dirty tech/news emailer without the ads and occasional over-sized pictures. Plus, I can keep up on new events as they occur on an hourly basis.
