Google to turn off web change tracking in Reader


Google has announced that it's going to remove the support for tracking changes on non-RSS feed web-pages. 

While it's apparently not a massively used feature, I've used it a bit to track when sites have been updated, and it did prove really useful. 

They recommend using an alternative, like page2rss.  From a quick search - other another alternative appears to be WebRSS or FeedBlitz

To be honest though, I don't really want to sign up to another 3rd party site just to feed the google feed. 

I think I'll just check those sites manually.
