FIREFOX USERS: Want to be told when ProjCamelot is updated?

Since Project Camelot doesn't have an RSS feed, you can install this Firefox extension and get it to scan Project Camelot's main page periodically for any changes.

Directions:

A - Install the extension from: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/3362 and restart Firefox

B - Visit http://projectcamelot.org/index.html

C - Click on the 'Update Scanner' button in the status bar (it should be an arrow pointing upwards)

D - Create a 'New Entry' (one of the buttons in the Update Scanner sidebar)

E - Set the scanner to scan every 30mins (you can set it to one hour or something less frequent)

F - Ignore changes under 0 characters

G - Click 'OK'

The Scanner will now notify you of any updates to PCamelot's frontpage without having to manually visit it.

You may want to test the extension on a frequently updated website (yahoo news or something) to make sure you've set it up properly.
I've also set my extension's preferences to show the update popup until I close it, in case I don't notice the Update Scanner's icon has changed to purple.
