I'd like a Linux application that would watch a web page for changes,

one? Source-compilation is fine; FYI I use Ubuntu Gutsy.

I don't know of such an application, but a competent shell coded could
whip you up one in about 10 minutes, using bash(1), wget(1), diff(1),
and fastmail(1) (or any other commandline mail program)
