Not sure if this qualifies as "tech news" or not, but I've found a Google Chrome extension that has been really helpful at keeping tabs on when changes are pushed to one of our applications. It's called Page Monitor. You simply navigate to a page you want to monitor, then click the button to start monitoring that site.
