From time to time, you might want to check whether the contents of certain
websites have changed since the last time you visited them.This could be lots of work if you intend to check them out manually and a tool, that would check websites automatically would be really handy in this situation. Especially if we are talking about dozens or even hundreds of websites and not just a handful.
Page Update Watcher can do this for you after you add the websites that you want to check from time to time. To do so, you have a very simple
interface with logically organized groups of buttons at your disposal. The buttons and menus can be used to add or modify links to websites that you want to observe and it is even possible to create categories for certain subjects or intervals for groups of websites.
It’s also possible to add pages from your bookmarks (IE & FF supported only) instead of typing in links manually. For each page added you can set an interval between individual checks ranging from one minute to a whole month. The most amazing thing about this tiny utility is that it even lets you precisely specify which content should be watched. You can download the page’s source code within the program’s interface to determine the part of code you’re interested in and then set which part of that
website is to be controlled. This way, you can avoid many false alerts from dynamically changing sites.
Besides previously mentioned features Page Update Watcher can also send you a notification
e-mail when a website update is detected. It can also just sit in the system tray and pop up a
clickable link for you to follow to that site.
The
application also supports several hot-keys thus improving the interaction with itself and speeding up checks for one category or all of them. No website updates will evade you any more.
