Finding News For Your Niche

Lately I’ve been finding that “Google Alerts” is about the easiest way to consistently find news for your niche. Sure, it helps to have a number of RSS feeds set up for the main players in your field, but it also helps to have Google constantly scanning for your keywords, and alerting you when they find something fitting.

Otherwise you can do it the old fashioned way: that’s by scanning on your own for any opportunity you can find. But that will take awhile, and is the opposite of automated. And in the end, you have to try and automate every task you can, for the very effectiveness of your work online. If you don’t, you’ll be road kill on the Information Superhighway.

I am open to any other ideas people have for finding info. What methods do you use?

    3. I usually use the Google News, and sometimes the blogsearch as well. Alerts are pretty decent.
