08/07/2003 Entry: "Web Monitoring and Aggrigation"

I've been using a variety of tools for year to email myself webpages. Each morning when I wake up I have about 10-20 web pages waiting for me... news, weather, TV listings, and selected content. I've put together a list of tools I've seen across the web. Right now I use some custom shell scripts and Web Secretary. The best thing about Web Secretary or the commercial version Track Engine is that it will email you just the new stuff or the new stuff highlighted. Major benefit. If you are really interested, let me know or check out the Web Secretary mailing list.

The best are
