Click the News tab on the main page or go to news.google.com to find this
great site for news junkies. Browse news stories from 4,500 news sources —

Google Web Alerts
Google’s Web Alerts is a handy tool that will keep you updated with changes
on the Web. Enter your keywords, what you want to search — News, the Web,
News and the Web, or Google Groups — specify how often you want updates
(immediate, once a day, or once a week), and provide your e-mail address,
and Google will e-mail you when it finds matching Web pages, news articles,
or discussion-group messages. A great way to keep informed.
