Automating Safari in OSX
February 22, 2006 4:10 PM Subscribe
In OSX 10.4.5, is there an Automator workflow or a way in iCal to have Safari open a particular website at a particular time everyday?
I basically want Safari to open to a specific URL at the same time everyday. Is this possible?

If you're command line savvy, you can just cron this using the open command. Like this, to open Metafilter at noon every day:
0 12 * * * "open http://www.metafilter.com"

2. Set up a recurring apointment in iCal
3. Add an alarm and set it to open the shortcut file
