There is yolk (available on pypi.python.org) to check for updates.

As to updating all that need updating, there are some suggestions along
the lines of:
pip freeze --local | cut -d = -f 1 | xargs pip install -U

But you might experience some rough edges around that solution. A request
to add the functionality to pip seems to be stuck in the pull request
queue:
