EFF started a new website (http://www.tosback.org) that tracks changes to the online policies for lots of sites (facebook, ebay, etc)
It isn't an intelligent review of the changes, it just compares the previous version and new version and highlights changes -- the changes can be something like a formatting change, address change, etc... or something more involved.
One thing I found interesting is the frequency of changes -- you can see that ebay changed its user agreement 5 times in 2 days -- but mostly it was switching back and forth between two versions (one effective on June 8, the other June 14) -- so is this something that was a problem on ebay, or the way the EFF was discovering/recoding changes?
