ig2atom - Convert Instagram feed to atom (works well with newsbeuter)

Ig2atom is a simple script that creates an atom feed from your Instagram feed. I wrote it for my own use, but I though I might as well post it here.

To use it, run "ig2atom SESSIONID" where "SESSIONID" is the session id that is stored as a browser cookie when you log in to Instagram.

To use ig2atom with newsbeuter, add the following like the your "urls" file:

exec:ig2atom SESSIONID

If ig2atom doesn't meet your requirements, https://instagram-atom.appspot.com/ may. I hadn't seen it before I wrote ig2atom, but I also prefer running a script locally rather than trusting their server, and such a script works well for that with newsbeuter.
