Any clients that can automate notecard creation and texture uploading?

Not strictly a scripting question, but since this is the most technical group I can think of .. :)

Are there any clients that can automate the following:

* call a web resource, and dump the results into a notecard
* poll a temporary local directory for new images, and upload any it sees (and
yes, pay the $10L per image)

In one sense, I can easily get around this by having an intermediate web
app that generates SMIL on the fly (for Quicktime) - and I have done that for
RSS feeds. But.. am wondering how to automate the import process from
web to SL, so that notecards and textures can be added on the fly.

I don't know that any bot/clients have been built for this, but that's where you'll want to look
