Yes. You want to check for it after each edit. How do you know when an edit
has happened? If there is a script that you can run automatically ever day,
then you set things up so that that script emails you when there is an edit,
and you know by checking your email, which you do every day anyway.
If there is no way to write such a script, you have to visit the site and press
that button every day; that is extra work every day.

Zoltan.
