    The bad thing is the way Two Lakes and Rubin have been nickle and diming their HITs; your monitor is going to drive you nuts.

    Awesome thanks!! Now, I was thinking - what would work for me? I would really like to get notification by a beep on my smartphone if sleeping. Any high tech ideas? I'm really challenged on this side of things I have all of the equipment )(ipad, laptop, desktop, smartyphone), but I don't know how to use it. LOL

    totally not using this for two lakes... the rubin one-hit-per-hour thing might get annoying, but it would be more annoying to miss out on any actual batches... hit two this morning, $40... if i didn't catch those, $0.

    That's weird. For me, it's Firefox randomly crashing or lagging something fierce. Chrome might crash once every 4 days, and that's just if I try to overwork it with a boatload of tabs (which it opens as separate processes).

    I was trying to come up with something yesterday for that, since sometimes I have things I'd like to do, you know, outside. I don't know of anything other than TurkAlert, and by then it's too late.

    use the custom alert to send an email to your phone, then set the phone to beep when it gets an email? could be annoying if you get a lot of email on your phone tho...

    I would setup a separate email account just to receive alerts from. Then after you have highlighted the text that you want to monitor, right click and scroll down to where it says check4change. Go to the custom alert, and click on it. Change it to how long you want it to check, which I have it set to 5s. Then you can select the area that says send an alert to email.

    Then on the email that you have setup you can go into settings and have them send you an alert when you receive an email. I believe both Gmail and Outlook have this feature.

    Coman Petre?

    I just figured out that we can export lists. Maybe we should come up with a master set and set up a thread or something.

    no idea. i've actually held a smartphone in my hand like maybe 5 min total in my life. if you right click when you set up check4change you can choose 'custom', then on that menu you can choose to have it send you an email alert. your carrier should provide an email address for your phone, you can check here http://www.emailtextmessages.com/ for what format and address your carrier uses. then i'm assuming you can go into your phone settings in alerts/sounds/whatever and set some kind of notification for when you get a new email...
