What is PageProbe - Automatic Page Monitor?
What is PageProbe?
PageProbe WebExtension can monitor any web pages (e.g. price changes of products) you can access on the Internet or in your company intranet. By simply right-clicking the content you see on a page, you can quickly create a tracker with optional conditions and actions and then view the status of those trackers in a simple monitoring view.
By clicking the extension icon you can see a nice overview of all your trackers and the data retrieved. Trackers can be easily organized into groups.
Feature highlights:
- Unlimited number of trackers that can monitor any accessible page on the Internet or intranet
- Fully local solution - does not require an account
- Trackers can be organized into a tree based hierarchy of groups
- Converters allow you to easily transform strings to numbers and perform simple arithmetic on them
- Advanced conditions for trackers: contains text, doesn't contain text, contains all words, doesn't contain words, contains any words, contains any words that start with, matches regexp, is, is not, begins with text, ends with text, smaller than, smaller than or equal, greater than, greater than or equal, is going up, is going down, has changed
- Case sensitive and case-insensitive matching
- Boolean logic matching: combine any conditions, for example: (a | b) & c
- Advanced actions: show desktop notification, play audio (local or URL), set color/CSS for monitor column/row, HTTP POST, IFTTT, data history logging, event log entry

Comments and Reviews
If you want to track something, let's say a price of a certain item then it usually ends in frustration/overload:
Whatever website will pester you with news regularly and sometimes even with bluntly unrelated ads (tracking included).
For some time I switched to VisualPing but they only check up to 3 items for at most 6 months.
So I made folders in firefox which I checked manually - daily, weekly, biweekly, monthly and then rightclick to "Open All Bookmarks"... Still, checking manually is tedious and time consuming :p
After a short lucky search I found PageProbe and it is slowly taking over more and more of my trackings.
