Abstract
We describe a novel, "focusable", scalable, distributed web crawler based on GNU/Linux and PostgreSQL that we designed to be easily extendible and which we have released under a GNU public licence. We also report a first use case related to an analysis of Twitter's streams about the french 2012 presidential elections and the URL's it contains.
