Google’s free alerting services

Google email and RSS alerts are seriously broken– do not alert you to everything that is new– alerts sometimes ‘die’– often bring up old material that you’ve already seen– duplicate information

More reliable to bookmark searches, run them manually and apply date option

Customise Google News and add topics to news.google.co.uk


Google alerts

http://www.google.com/alertsOption for Scholar alerts not included – have to be set up from within Scholar


Google alerts


Google Scholar alerts


Google Scholar alerts


Google alerts can go bizarrely wrong

Add a “topic” to news.google.co.uk (must be signed in)
