RSS Feed
To be kept informed as soon as a new version of BasKet Note Pads or WeBasKet is released, you can use BasKet Note Pads's RSS feed:
http://basket.kde.org/basket.rss
A RSS feed is a small network resource that contains news from a site, a weblog, a project, etc.
You need a news aggregator to collect feeds.
An aggregator collects feeds so the news items are readable from a single place regardless of their source, and you can be notified as soon as a site is updated.
This saves you a lot of time because you won't have to visit all sites anymore. The aggregator collects them for you.
