Wordpress Plugin [Scraper - Similar to Facebook add a link]

Hello, I am looking for a wordpress/php developer that can build a plugin or write a script capable of the following: I am building a news website and would like the "writers" to be able to input a URL and get a thumbnail - title - and excerpt from the given URL. These should then be back linked to the URL provided. The author should also be able to select which category this post will be placed in. This is similar to what has been done on Facebook for the 'share a link feature'. Thank you in advance.
