Please don't everyone abuse me too much if this is too silly a question,
BUT,
is it possible / viable to have swap on a usb thumb drive?

I have an old laptop with only a couple of gig of space and was wondering
if plugging a 500MB / 1GB thumb drive into usb port would be able to
be used effectively as swap?
