Great idea. I always knew my crawler was a bit of a hack and would be eventually obsoleted.
Until we get there, though, may my crawler be let back in? Like I said in email I promise to only restart it after I embed controls over how many URLs I get per hour deeply inside it, and to log my crawling activity and keep an eye on it in future.
The reason I was crawling every few minutes was to get notified of updates to conversations as they happen, before the 'herd' moves on to new feeding grounds. But I can make it crawl even hourly and it'll still allow me to stay kinda abreast of the conversation here.
