Try some online cron services. This is more or less the same jldupont suggested, though.

Depending on the php setup you might be able to launch your script with

php /wherever/yourscript.php </dev/null &>/dev/null

command line from inside php.

Use a script on Google AppEngine to "ping" yours (Scheduled Tasks to be more precise). It's free :-)

Not really. You could have the script call itself 60 seconds after it completes. But if the script crashes, it won't restart.

Something like sleep(60*1000) to cause it to sleep for 60 and then just either call the page again, or start the script over at the top.
