So in addition to exploring scripts for my website, I’ve also been curious as to how I can start creating spiders or agents to crawl the web and bring back information to me. One immediate use is regarding my passport. I recently had one completed and sent away to be processed. Now I’m waiting for it to be mailed back to me. I have the return tracking number but it doesn’t do me any good until its in the mail so I’d like a script to check for that tracking number everyday and notify me when my passport is on its way. I have a feeling this is a long-term project and considering the amount of free time I have right now, I think I’ll save time just checking it myself but once I can get the basics down, I could come up with a lot more uses.
