How Apple and Amazon Security Flaws Led to My Epic Hacking | Gadget Lab | Wired.com
In the space of one hour, my entire digital life was destroyed. First my Google account was taken over, then deleted.

The software utility cron is a time-based job scheduler in Unix-like computer operating systems. People who set up and maintain software environments use cron to schedule jobs (commands or shell scripts) to run periodically at fixed times, dates, or intervals.

Same goes for things like Terminal commands, Twitter search syntax, multitouch gestures or anything else you can't simply point and click a mouse at.
