This blog has RSS syndication, which allows you to be notified of new content without needing to navigate directly here. There are a number of ways to receive an RSS feed. Here are a few.
For those using Microsoft Windows, try RSSOwl (http://www.rssowl.org/download), a free and open program.
On the Mac, Vienna (http://www.vienna-rss.org/vienna2.php) and RSSOwl is also good native OS X program.
On Linux, I use Liferea. To get it on Ubuntu, just enter into the terminal: sudo aptitude install liferea
I feel the need to mention Google Reader (http://reader.google.com), which, while definitely not FOSS, is a very convenient web-based option.
You will know if a website has a feed if there is an orange radio-wave icon in your web browser's location bar. You may click on this icon or copy the blog's URL, then paste it into your new RSS application. Opens Source Classics's RSS feed is located at: http://hephaistos-text.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=category&layout=blog&id=40&Itemid=53
