I had an idea that the system database would updates itself at a specific time.. say January 1, 1008, at 12:01am, and send out an email or, update the entire database, and remove all dates from 2007.
Is it possible for the server to actually update itself using PHP and Mysql, without having human interactions on the page?
My real idea is to prune every day 7 days back, every day. So at 12:01, it would remove last weeks entry for this posting, and only keep 7 days history.
