Setting up Cron

In this tutorial, they suggest me to use >/dev/null.

But in this one they don't.

What do you suggest me, and what are the implications of not using it?

Hi John,

As mentioned on the first page:

NOTE: the final >/dev/null sends all the output to the 'bin' and stops you getting an email every 15 minutes.

Whether you use it or not is a matter of personal preference.
