Hello dear monks,

I'd like to programm parallel web spider and create small search engine using great fulltext SE Sphinxsearch. Now I am deciding, which modules I should use. It was long long time ago, when I worked with POE, so in general - it is good start ? I looked around and it seems for me would be best using for spidering POE::Component::Client::HTTP and for reading/writing to DB POE::Component::EasyDBI - or you suggest something else ?

I looked on POE webpage, there are nice examples, maybe someone of you have already some small example with HTTP spidering and storing those pages to DB/MySQL, or even there exists some Spider already, so I am asking you, not to reinvent the wheel.

Thank you!
