In the case of the above URL, you're seeing the Apache "test page", which is displayed when you start the daemon without either placing files within your web root, or customizing your config file.

res.innerHTML = width + " X " + height;
if (res == null)
{
alert ("hello");
}

There are services which can notify you of updates to website changes.
Google had such a service in Google Reader, but they recently (in the last month) removed the facility.
A quick search for "monitor website changes" bought up the following. I don't know how good they are or if they'll do what you want.

Your browser requests DNS resolution from your ISP or whoever, and it gives the browser an IP address. The browser then connects to the website using the IP address.

I'm a big fan of Wordpress. If you are planning on hosting it yourself, you can use plugins, in which case the Events Calendar plugin looks pretty good. Wordpress makes it pretty to publish content, and the support is very decent.
