You can do something like that on Windows. Maybe other OSs, too.

Even though the title doesn't sound remotely related, check out my answer to the question Access variable inside an non-return function from other package without global variable. The crucial API functions are namedwin32gui.EnumWindows()andwin32gui.GetWindowText().

You could try writing a Native Messaging Host in Python, plus a Chrome extension, so that every time a certain URL would be open, it would notify the native host.
