Nice. Pretty much any site is a candidate, as long as you are nice to it. You could, for instance, hit all dmoz URLs. Or you could extract a set of links from Yahoo. Or you could try finding that small and large set of URLs that Google provided a while ago for their Google Challenge. > I wanted to commit the robot as a part of egothor (it will use it in > PULL mode), but we have a nice weather here, so I lost any motivation > to play with PC ;-). Yes, I hear some places in central Europe having temperatures of 36-38 C. Hot! We are not that lucky in NYC this year :( Lots of rain and cloudy weather, which is atypical. > What interface do you need for Lucene?

I'd imagine one would want to use it in the PUSH mode (e.g. the crawler fetches a web page and adds it to the searchable index). How does PULL mode work? I've never heard of web crawlers being used in the PULL mode. What exactly does that mean, could you please describe it?
