What tools are you using to monitor BGP announcements and route changes?
[Full Disclosure, the bgp.tools guy will of course tell you to use bgp.tools]
Unsure what the etiquette for self promotion is on this mailing list,
but I would happily recommend bgp.tools (the service I run). It
supports the development of the BGP toolkit at the same time.
For myself (since I cannot really monitor myself with myself) I use
I love bgp.tools 
good product

Hi,
The wonderful BGP.tools already has been mentioned a few times.
Another excellent option is https://Packetvis.com, I find their RPKI
monitoring approach to be very insightful.
Catchpoint might be another option, BGP Monitoring | Catchpoint IPM,
AFAIK by the same people that worked on "Isolario" a few years ago.
Kind regards,
Job
I believe PacketVis is Massimo Candela , based on
Whoa, its nice to see that Allesandro is still around.
It was sad to see when Isolario.it quietly went offline.
Also I would point out in CAIDA’s general direction https://bgpstream.caida.org/ (should fit OP bill).
CAIDA was first to show how much geeky fun might be had by monitoring (and sometimes storing) BGP updates.
RIPE RIS https://www.ripe.net/analyse/internet-measurements/routing-information-service-ris/ is also good, but as Job Snijders pointed me out doesn’t send emails out of the box.
It does provide a filterable live feed that we use for leak detection.
Apart from that we're using bgp.tools when we want to dig into stuff.
Oh, and most of the T1s have either routeservers or at least mostly usable
looking glasses.
HTH,
Elmar.
Ray mentioned precisely that he wants to monitor BGP announcements and route changes.
Leak detection is kind of on a different level. You need a bit more data to effectively detect them. ( I kind of know that).
It makes discussion more colorful to my taste. You can do a lot with colorful bgp data
It is run by his brother rather than Massimo, but it is his BGPalerter software behind the family business

Aha! That makes sense!
I was struggling to find any kind of public data on who runs it, so I assumed whoever was presenting it probably runs / owned it

Our use case is extremely simple, so the RIS feed gives us everything we need.
We don't need to qualify the leak, *any* leak from a local node is undesirable,
they tag everything NO_EXPORT. Anybody exporting must thus be dealt with.
But you gave me an idea regarding our datacenter prefixes...
