Google Alerts

Hello Good morning and welcome to Cybersurf – your weekly window on the web – I am your cyberhost Steven Lang – this week having a look at some new features on Google.

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?

CHARLES INSERT:
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.
