In this day and age, finding time to read the newspaper, watch the news, or listen to the radio is difficult. Still, it’s important to keep track of the news, information found on the Web, or posted in the Usenet News groups. Even when you have time to read the newspaper or news Web site in the morning, keeping abreast of the news throughout the day can be difficult. Google has developed E-mail Alerts for anyone that needs to stay on top of the latest news or events happening around them. Because most people now read their e-mail throughout the day, getting special news alerts in your e-mail is a great way to stay abreast of changing information.
