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.
