ColdFusion has a really simple and powerful scheduler built in.. here's what one of the screens looks like:

I'd like to setup a bunch of PHP scripts to fire up at different intervals. Is there a really well known free PHP application that I can download that will allow me to schedule all of my "scheduled tasks", log each of the tasks, and (somehow) call them on the proper schedules? I'd rather not have to go setup cron tasks every time I need a new link invoked.

    You can use any gui for cron (http://www.debianhelp.co.uk/cronweb.htm) and if you don't want to give local paths to your scripts (like 'php /this/is/some/long/web/root/run.php') you can use wget as your scheduled command to trigger urls. This is also aplicable for windows scheduler.
