Seems like something that would be perfect in an rss feed, although 
programs that processed it would have to track their own timestamps and 
be careful not to do something stupid if they lose their place from 
being reinstalled or having a backup restored.  For the 'human readable' 
side, pointing google reader or a similar feed aggregator at it should 
be fine, and turns it into something where new items are easily visible 
when you look without creating clutter or requiring visits to lots of 
individual sites to check for updates.
