This could be turned into a very useful shell script. Actually, this could be
two very useful shell scripts; one to create the status message, and one to do
the notification.
Another approach could be to modify syslog to update a new file in /var/log/
and then use inotify to monitor that file. inotify could then use the
notification script from above...
