If you are like me and have adopted RSS as your primary news source, you might like the following application, called notify.me. Orli Yakuel at Go2Web2.0 blog gives the lowdown. You can use notify.me as a filter to stream the news you are most interested in and exclude the news you are not interested in from your subscription sources. The service will email, SMS or IM you with any posts that discuss your filter term, such as “twitter” per Yakuel’s example. You can also search Facebook and Twitter using the service, to track changes to your profile or instances of your name. You also can secure updates to your favorite web pages. Great way to ensure that you see exactly what you want to see from your feeds and stay on top of it all!
