[wplug] web content monitoring script

[John Harrold]

Sometime in October Henry Umansky assaulted the keyboard and produced:

| Funny you ask, I'm monitoring my web traffic for a few of the sites I'm 
| hosting with the following command:
| 
| tail -f -c 1 /www/*/logs/access_log
| 
| I just keep an SSH window open with that command running.

i guess i should be more specific. take this for example. say i want to
know when a new story is posted on slashdot:

http://slashdot.org/

i can probably write something myself, but why reinvent the wheel if it
already exists.

 What difference does it make to the dead, the orphans, and the homeless,
 whether the mad destruction is brought under the name of totalitarianism or
 the holy name of liberty and democracy?
