Running a script remotely or making it run periodically

2
Hi,
I made a Python script that monitors the Public folder on Dropbox and adds links to files to a XML file when executed.
How can I execute the script remotely (When I'm on my iPhone or not on the computer my Dropbox is linked to)? Also possible is make the script run periodacally, but then how can do that?

Thanks,
Cdr

I managed to make it run periodically with the sched module. I'm still looking for a way to trigger running it remotely and also something new I'm looking for is accessing song metadata with Python. I found 2 modules that work with ID3 Tags - eyeD3 and mutagen but I'm not sure how to work with them...

Thanks in advance,
Cdr
