[Google Reader] added a new feature that allows you to track changes to any website
Most of the websites I follow have the RSS feeds that make me quite easy to subscribe but every so often there are sites and pages I came across that just don’t have the feeds for me to easily follow up. I would have to bookmark them in my Google Bookmark and remember to come back and check them up periodically for any changes I may be interested. Too bad, I often forgot doing so.
Now my favorite RSS feed reader, Google Reader, has rolled out a new feature that allows me to follow any changes to any web pages, even they don’t have the feed. What it does is that Reader will create a feed for that page you want to follow and will periodically visit the page and publish any significant changes it finds. For example, if I want to follow Google.org’s latest products, I can just type “http://google.org/products.html” into Reader’s Add a subscription field. And Reader will do the rest of the dirty job for me.
And if I find it doesn’t serve the purpose well for me, I can always unsubscribe or opt-out it easily within the Reader.
So, if you are stilling using something else following the feeds, this is just another reason adding up for you to consider the switch.
