Way to keep track of other people's questions?

[shybearuk]

Is there any way that I can 'tag' a question posted by someone else so that I can receive e-mails when it's updated? I just don't want to have to search for the questions once they drop off the bottom of the 'last 20 questions' page. OK, so I'm a laxzy b*gg*r, but is there?

There is a software package that you can set up to monitor URL's and notify you of a change - I'll see if I can find it!

Found this: http://www.markwell.btinternet.co.uk/webmon/ - seems to work quite well...

Doesn't Active Desktop built in to Windows allow you to 'monitor' pages placing them directly on to your desktop. That said I doubt many questions get updated once they have dropped off the bottom of the page.

Anthomson - surprisingly it does happen - look here:question 574& getting replies two and a half years later!

[anthomson]

point taken - maybe in two years time I will get some answers to the questions I have posted ; )

shybearuk - good idea. It's one of a number of things that will be looked at in the near future. But for now you will have to do as others suggest.

thanks hal, that's the second cool idea i've found on AB today :-)
