    Default Schedule execution of a product feed

    Sometimes I forget to execute the product feed. Google then drops all my products. Yes shame on me! Is there any easy way to schedule the execution of a product feed? Is there a URL I can go to that executes the feed (I can automate this if a url exists)?

    This way aspdnsf, Google, and my Alzheimer's can coexist peacefully.

    Part of the answer to scheduled data feeds is here at Google: http://www.google.com/support/mercha...&answer=160629

    The product XML file that is generated through the product feed command window is kept in a folder that the auto feed at Google Base can't access without first logging in.

    That means the xml file if kept in an unsecure location could be picked up and used to build a duplicate site or not.

    There should be a better answer.

    This is a little utility that allows you to set up your feed to be executed on a scheduler:
