Google alerts
Google Alerts (google.com/alerts) ofers several diferent kinds of moni-
toring—not as many as Yahoo—but it is still a relevant option for many
information trappers. Unfortunately, it only delivers via e-mail: there is no
option to send alerts to your mobile phone or via an instant-messaging pro-
gram. Some of the alerts Google Alerts provides include News, Web, News
& Web combined, and Groups (
