Is it an idea to start making a link crawler in C++? I know that Perl fits
the purpose very well, but I'd rather do it in C++ as an excersise.

Depends on what a "link crawler" is.

You'll have a tough time doing it in Standard C++, given that neither
the language nor its standard library are capable of network-type
operations.
