What would be really cool is if you could make it send an email when something happens. Few examples:
- Let me know when the weather forecast for Boston is above 18* C (so I could plan a picnic for tomorrow, for example)
- Notify me when the next episode of my show is on/next time my team is playing
- Notify me next time Paul Oakenfold is playing in Boston (which may be far away, but I sure don't want to miss it)
- Let me know when the USD/GBP exchange rate drops under 2 GBP for 1 USD (again, far, far way:) )
I know each one of those would require extra programming, but that would be a VERY cool service. You could set up some kind of platform, so people can write their own conditions/event checks.
Plus, amassing all that interest data could be quite valuable if, for example, I'm Paul Oakenfold's agent.
