Trapping
For some reason news search engines have better trap mechanisms overall
than Web search engines. Yahoo ofers news alerts via the Yahoo Alerts sys-
tem, which we talked about earlier, or via RSS feeds. RSS feeds are available
on the right side of the front news page. Yahoo News also has topical RSS
feeds, which you may ind useful depending on how general your topic is.
You can get a full list of those feeds at news.yahoo.com/rss.
Possibilities
.
Yahoo News' search indexes a lot of general news searches but puts
them into categories. If possible, try developing a query that relies on
the categories to do the heavy work and lets you search using more
general keywords.
