Google Alerts
And joining me in the studio to help us along is Internet consultant Charles Webster. Charles we are now looking at google web alerts – what is this all about?
IN: "It's a beta site . . . .
OUT: . . . . their fundamental strength.
Charles Webster telling us about Google’s web alerts – which you can find at google dot com forward slash alerts – quite simple really.
And for all you news junkies out there – I am sure you must have tried customising Google News.
The regular Google news page is heavily slanted towards the US of A – so what if you want a more local flavour?
In case you haven’t cusotmised the news page – it is really easy – click on the news button above the search field and go to the news page.
There you will find a Customise this Page block.
Click on that and you will soon have the news that interests you.
So we come to the end of another Cybersurf – thanks for listening and be sure to join me again next Monday for more on the best of the web.
