I just realized we have links to with comments on this blog - why? I like Andy Beal's where he links to their most recent post (a plugin I'm sure). At the very least everyone should have alerts on their name (unless it's too common), their main product names, & their brand name. Then you can thank people and comment on posts where people write about you. Do the same with your competitors (track their key terms - for competitive intelligence). Good point Dan, you can follow your Google alerts in Google Reader. Janet Thanks for the shout out Clint. I just realized we have links to with comments on this blog – why?

Those are a lot easier to manage when you have more non-specific stuff to track. I would also mention that Google alerts can also provide RSS feeds.
