Abstract:
The subject invention provides a unique system and method that facilitates creating a summary page of content associated with disparate sources of data. For example, a user can select one or more regions of one or more disparate web pages for which he/she desires updated information over a length of time. The selected regions can be identified and then marked for monitoring via a web crawler. The web crawler can analyze the relevant web pages, and in particular, only the selected regions to determine if any of the corresponding content have changed. Changes to other non-selected content can be ignored. The desired changes can be extracted and included on the summary page to mitigate the number of times a user must revisit individual web pages to see what if any changes have occurred since the previous visit.
