Scheduled HTTP Request - Windows Task Scheduler
« on: September 29, 2008, 04:51:07 PM »
I made a new blog post  Scheduled HTTP Request - Windows Task Scheduler

This can be used to make a HTTP request to a web page on a timed basis. (I.E. every 5 minutes).
Useful if your server does not allow you the ability to use scheduled cron jobs.

Suggested use: Scheduled updates for
web cam image overlay, or
Web Cam Image Uploader

Cons: Your PC needs to be constantly on and online for this to work.
