Cool! Definitely going to be following the rest of that series.

What I find interesting is that congress seems to be right in the middle of putting a lot of stuff online directly in XML, so you can find all sorts of things if you poke around on their site enough. There's xml.house.gov, of course, but if you look deeper (and Google creatively) you can also find things like a much more machine-readable version of the list of senators.
