There is a website (very simple) which will be updated soon and I’d like to receive an alert at the moment it changes (like a sound, a popup,…)

I guess I should send request every x minutes and compare the result with what’s now but I don’t know how to do that.

I don’t really care about the language used, I know java, python, php, a bit of c and bash (I’m on linux)…

Thank you

    An easy way to do it would be to combine wget and cmp with a loop in bash. When the files differ you could use sendmail to throw yourself an email.
