I've been interested in the idea of having a user-facing website that generates static copies of its dynamic content on a set schedule. Do any of you have more examples of this?

About this particular search engine, though, the search results I received from it either were not very relevant or the service did not display information that made them seem relevant (such as a snippet of text from the page — it did this occasionally but not always).

Religion and beliefs never cease to amaze me.

There is nothing wrong with having a computer running on Shabbat if it is scheduled before Shabbat. (If you are worried about electricity generated on Shabbat by a Jew, use AWS ect that isn't in Israel) And some of the sites it links don't appear to be very "kosher".

That's a lot of effort to do nothing.

Does anyone know if there is some significance to it being calculated on Tuesday? Since Shabbat is from Friday to Saturday I would have picked Sunday or Monday.

Some people live their lives for the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. Some live their lives for the gods capitalism. I'd say the former is a lot less pernicious.
