You know, this reminds me of some old Web 1.0 services that would kind of do the same. You'd register an address, and if the site changes any content, you'd get an email. I used to have dozens of pages registered, mostly news type sites and always kept up-to-date with things.

At some point they went away, I think RSS killed them, but RSS never seemed to work quite as well for me for some reason, too granular I think.

I'm really glad to see something like back again.

So the idea is that you add a link, it watches for changes to the article's content and alerts you if a change. Sounds good, but it seems rare for sites to update existing articles, when another could be posted.

Ever thought about watching the parent site for updates with similar content?

This is cool, thanks for sharing.

I hoped when I saw the title that this would be a service to let me find out what happened in a story some time later. I often find 'developing' stories of great potential import seem to disappear from the world's media later on, and I never get to see how things actually turned out.

This is great! I'm going to put a few pages there that I obsessively follow anyway. RSS isn't available (or good) often and I don't want to create social media profiles to get updates.

A really big thank you for everyone who's commented, it's great to have helpful feedback when you throw an idea out there.

Thin white text on bright red background at the bottom is just unreadable and user-hostile.

I think the design is really great

How often do you scrape the link to check the changes? A suggestion: make a google query with the story title and monitor other similar stories to the recipients email, similar stories might provide additional information =)
