I am designing a website and it uses Windows Forms (in Visual Studio 10) in which for example i have five-six URLs. Now i am displaying them on home page of my website xyz.com

What i want is, i want to calculate total no. of tweets for all links and display links based on no. of times they are being tweeted/retweeted.

for a url we can calculate no. of tweet using twitter api

HTML

http://urls.api.twitter.com/1/urls/count.json?url=YourURL

I know all the stuff like receiving JSON values in a string and parsing json to retrieve tweet counts and then compare and display links based on the priority etc.

What i have been using till now it is initiating all the process using a Click_Button.

But i want to know how can i automate this all for each 10 minutes. Its like a end user can see urls priority with just refreshing the page.

Why running a separate process? This is a bad idea. Do you have or going to develop source code for it?

1) You wouldn't be using Windows Forms to design a website, you are using asp.net.
2) Use the website only to display data gathered and stored in a database or data file of some sort.
3) Use an Windows Service running on a timer to gather the information and store it in a database or data file of some sort.

Never try to do too much with the web application itself. System and data manipulation processes should be handled from separate processes.
