Google Alerts for Investors

If you are interested in the news that makes the market and like me know that sentiment often drives the news, then the new beta service from google can be useful to track a number of things that may be happening in your portfolio.

Google will aggregate information in the news and on blogs and send you an e-mail on a regular basis selected by you. Designed for people to keep up to date on their competitors or their teenage friends from school (that's not me in case you ask, but yes I do have a facebook entry!)

Highly useful if you are trying to stay up with the news and don't use an RSS filter- this way you can get the info sent straight to your mobile e-mail.
