    [Edit: take the word 'latest' out, and it's fine...] With Google’s feature, Google Alerts, users can track the most recent ‘relevant’ Google search results and news, and with an account, you can use ‘managed’ alerts. The company suggests some applications - "monitoring a developing news story", "keeping current on a competitor or industry", "getting the latest on a celebrity or event", "keeping tabs on your favourite sports team", and err, stalking, or spying on people’s web presence, Blurred Keys guesses.

  1. Google Alerts aren’t new, I’ve used them for at least a year at this stage!

  2. I obviously wasn’t paying attention - sounds good, should help my cyberstalking :D

  3. I don’t know how I missed them before now, usually notice too much stuff.
