title: How to setup CRON job to run every 10 seconds in Linux?
body: <p>I need to run a <code>CRON</code> job every 10 seconds from started time.</p>
  
  <p>In Linux how to run a <code>CRON</code> job on every 10 seconds from the time its started? </p>
  
  <p>I am trying to solve that as following: <strong>when I make a request (or start) at 04:28:34 it should start at 04:28:44 not at 4:28:40</strong></p>
  
  <p>This is what I have done</p>
  
  <pre><code># m h  dom mon dow   command
  */10 * * * * /usr/bin/wget http://api.us/application/
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>What did I do wrong? Why does this not trigger <code>wget</code> every 10 seconds?</p>
