I need a websight that refreshes itself every couple of minutes... or that constantly is streaming a tiny amount of data.

Anyone know of one?

Hmmm.. If I understand correctly, you want a website that consistently sends data.

Try http://my.yahoo.com and set it for a refresh of 15 minutes (if that's enough for ya).

How about the stats page?

If you're thinking of writing one, any server side scripting language (perl, php, etc...) will permit a page to auto-refresh if you code it to.

every second often enough?

Perfect - thx, capt. apathy.

My ISP will boot me for inactivity, so sometimes I'm not actively hitting pages, but I don't want to lose my connection, so I just need something I can run in the background that counts as 'activity' since doing a constant ping doesn't work.

Case in point, qualifying on the rifle range in America's Army, but it disconnecting before I'm done, then crashing them game when it reconnects to upload my scores.

Thanks again!

LOL!

It kicks me back to their front page after a couple minutes. I'll see about yahoo...
