I wrote a websnapr equivalent one time. I needed thumbnails of every website on the internet and favicons wouldn't do.
So my script:
1. connected to a database and found a list of sites it needed images of
2. checked the image table to make sure there was a recent (< 1 day) snapshot
3. if there was not, it would start X, take a screenshot
4. use photologue to compress it on-the-fly
5. save the picture
it was less than 200 lines, but it worked really well. that's still my pride and joy.
