Hello all,
One great feature on the search engine Google, which you may find of of great use (I know I do) is Google Alert. The other nice thing about it, is that it's free.
Google Alerts are email updates of the latest relevant Google results (web, news, blogs, bulliten boards, etc.) based on your choice of query or topic.
Some handy uses of Google Alerts include:
> Keeping current on an industry (or competitor)
> Monitoring a developing news story
So you can have relevant news articles, website postings, blog postings, etc. all emailed to you.
I'd certainly recommend that you set up an alert for your OWN NAME. This way if your name is published online, at least you'll know about it!
To keep current on an industry, if you are an OB/GYN expert, you may setup Google Alerts to email you whenever the following terms are published on the web: "Laparoscopy, ectopic pregnancy, hysteroscopy, hysterectomy, hormone therapy, pregnancy".
Or if you're an Engineering expert, you may choose the terms "bridges, towers, building envelope failures."
This is an excellent way to assist you in keeping up to date, on the latest and greatest.
