US Elections: BBC News live feed

The BBC have their own Twitter-like feed of US election titbits. But I didn't want it in a browser... so I wrote myself a little Bash script to do the job for me. Run that through (say) watch:

watch -n 30 elections.sh

and Obama's your Presiden... I mean, Bob's your uncle.

I've a small window pinned to my screen with that in. Hooray for distractions from work!

EDIT: 11.55pm - At some point they changed their format slightly and it confused my regexp. Updated version for download now, same location.
