php ?

So, if I can come up with a php script to automate a task (in this case send a tweet) how do I actually USE the script. I copy the code into a notepad document, save it with the PHP extension and then what? I assume I need to upload it to my webspace and use their php functionality in some way? I have a 1and1 hosting account.

Install the php runtime on your machine, open up a CMD prompt,

Code:

$ php send_tweet.php
