Using the timer will work too, but the advantage of using linked messages is that you don't have the minimum timer delay for each iteration - it's pretty much instant instead.
John, a special thanks for this insight for Snoots.

With the timer(), even a time of .01 or .001 causes enough of a delay just in calling the timer to cause the script to pause approximately 1/4 second
The minimum time for a timer in OpenSim is 0.5 seconds, so calling
llSetTimerEvent() with anything less than 0.5 will result in a 0.5s timer. I don't know why they chose this value - SL has 0.2 seconds, for example.

/me once again bashes head against Opensim/LL logic wall... and remembers to now add .5 seconds to all timer() event calls.
