Just a few days back I was talking to one of my friends about how in Opera you can get a page to automatically refresh at set intervals. This could be pretty useful when you are watching a sports scorecard, online auctions or some such stuff which keeps changing by the minute or second. Not all browsers have this feature built in, but Refreshthing.com makes this possible on any browser.
Just go to Refreshthing.com, enter the url of the web site or web page, set the refresh interval (in seconds) and hit Go. Refreshthing will open the web page for you and refresh it automatically at the set frequency.

Yes, it works great. It’s one of the handiest tools I’ve every come across–especially for sporting events and for play-by-play over the Internet.
