[Tutor] Online Scripting

[Omer]

Hello.

I started a project with a goal: To have a script "read" an entire message
board, dedicated to various events,
process this information into an iCalendar file,
and finally- base a Google Calendar on the iCal file.

Now,
The script is done and it works great on my desktop.
The problem is, seeing as I plan this a sort of a service for the forum
people,
It can't be based off of my desktop, which is only available 5 ~ 6 days a
week.

So,

Has anyone a clue as to where might I host my script, so's A: the host
"runs" my script periodical (Once every Two hours? If I can configure it to
only run during the day than that's even better), and B: The host lets my
script create an iCal file (a single, <1MB file) and C: lets GCal have
access to this file.

I've looked Google App Engine. It's a huge effort: First remodeling my
script to use the GAE way of opening urls, to use the GAE way of storing
information, and I haven't as yet even looked into how do I store the
prepared iCal file, or how do I schedule the runs of my script. The need to
learn an entire platform, (Although I do plan to learn it someday), is too
large for me now. (Although, if there's no choice that's what I'll do.)

Sorry about this message's length,
Help will be appreciated, thank you for your time.
Omer.
