Does continually updating my site interfere with the listing or spidering of the site?

Yes. The version in Google's index will be out of date for a few days after you change your user interface. If that happens enough, they'll start to crawl you more often, which will have absolutely no effect on where you land in the search results.

If it's an improvement, Google shouldn't be a factor, though. Your users will be happy and appreciate the positive changes. And that could even help you slightly in the SERPs; a friend of mine started a blog, without much real aim, sort of about technology, digital cameras, video cards and multi-core chips, and so on. When he finds something truly interesting, or just a good price on something like a big HDD, he includes a link in his blog and emails people he thinks would be interested to know. ( I've been wanting another external drive, for example. )

Not that you're trying to land on my friend's blog, or that his site could help you very much ... but notice all the threads about the new UI in Google Analytics? Half of them have a link in there; it would be more if people didn't know how to find Google. Good content or design can get you links without you asking for them, which is the best kind. And that should offset their cache being stale for half a week.
