Does not work. Installed, set up monitor, observed change in target independently, still reports unchanged. Bye bye.

A melhor extensão de monitorar páginas! Você pode até selecionar que parte deseja monitorar dentro da página! O único problema é que limitam o monitoramento a apenas 25 páginas, então por este motivo não dei 5 estrelas!

Думал исопользовать в качестве аналога page monitor, но оказалось ненадежным. После перезагрузки ноута - слетает, как и весь список отсматриваемых сайтов - нужно заново все делать. Смысл расширения теряется, если я каждый день должен вручную сайты открывать и опять в лист приложения загружать.
