Would it be possible to farm the energy from pulsars?

From what I can tell, pulsars emit light in beams from the poles of the pulsar. Would it be possible to construct something to get energy from a pulsar's beams of radiation? Or is this as idiotic of an idea as... erm, an idiotic idea. (I am not good at metaphors.) Would this be easier than building a Dyson sphere?
