Do you think Google App Engine is suitable for an idea I have about a
program that will crawl around on the web and gather data for me for a
project?

The examples that I have found all seem to involve apps in which the
program is responding to the user. I would like to use a google app as
a sort of daemon that I can query every once in a while to see what
kind of new data it has found. The crawling algorithm is not really
memory or processor intensive, but I would like it to run all the time
which is why Google App is nice since I don't have my own dedicated
server.

Does anyone know if I can spawn threads? How often will my program be
stopped and restarted?

Thanks for the advice!
