Togashi Gaijin's "Relatively Absent" is one of my favourite fukufics with Fire's "Destiny's child". Here's the link: http://gaijinsrealm.com/
A must read for all fukufic fans.

Yep, that's a great one. I hope there will be an update soon. Too bad the site doesn't feature email alerts.

I absolutely LOVE this piece of software called Website Watcher. Yes, it's shareware, but well worth it. I currently have 136 web sites on my watch list, at least 47 of which are fan fiction sites.

That sounds intriguing. It says there is a 30 day trial period, though. Does the program still work (in limited capability) after that or will I have to get the full version?
And how many false alarms are there? I can imagine that if the program alerts you everything something about the site changes, it'll often be changes that are insignificant for our purposes. Tell me more?

you could do the same with a bash script / chron if you know how to use linux...
only difficulty is figuring out what changes have happened...

True, but most of us aren't using Linux anyway -- though it can do one hell of a lot regardless.
As for the fic, it's actually one of my top picks overall. A really novel plot and very detailed in many ways. Often I find fics to not be as detailed or intricate as I'd like, but Togashi is quite good at it.

This thread is for talking about a fan fiction story, not site monitoring programs and Linux scripting. If you want to talk about site monitoring methods, open a thread in Miscellaneous. The off-topic posting here ends now.
