What's a good practice project for learning BeautifulSoup4, which has a real use case
#3
I just got a project idea inadvertently.

I found out that I can download my entire Google account history, or just parts of it. The use history is in html files inside subfolders.

These html files display just fine in a browser, but it's impossible to do anything useful with the data that way.

I looked at one of the files in a text editor and the html is HIDEOUS. I want to develop an automated way to extract the useful data.

But first I'll have a look at those tutorials you linked to see what they contain, that can help me.
