I second that. Couldn't make anything off it until I went to some page and clicked the bookmarklet to see what happens. Nice idea though!

"Watch websites for changes/updates" might be a start.

Yeah I couldn't really tell what the point was until adding a page. Then since it wasn't really a page that updated I didn't get it. Have an about page that shows a feed for a commonly known page. Something that changes often. That would make it really clear what your product does and if I would find it useful. Since this is YC I went a head and added a page and played around to see how it works, but in the real web I wouldn't take that much effort to try to understand the point of the product.

Once you see it working it is a really cool. It would be useful for some of the sites and blogs I read that still have no RSS feed. Nice work, I like that you keep it simple, but if I want to know more and I am willing to click to learn more you should offer some other information.
