PM Tools You Can Use: Instant Monitoring of Any Website

January 16, 2008 – 6:46 pm

Here’s a handy pair of tools for monitoring any website, brought to us indirectly via Lifehacker:

Dapper, which is a free web service that will monitor any website for you and produce an RSS feed noting changes to that site.

RSS not your thing?  Add in Web-alerts, which will forward text messages of RSS updates to your phone or SMS device.

Or, if you like nice, traditional email, there’s RSSfwd, which sends rss feeds to you as email.

If you are doing research, keeping up with the competition, want everyone to get updates when you update your project site, or any number of other uses, you’ll find this is a handy set of tools to have.

Enjoy!
