Do you have Google Alerts set, so you can keep track of specific topics online? For example, you can get an update in your RSS feed if your name appears in a blog, or discussion, or in the online news.
I keep track of a few topics, including my name, with Google Alerts, and just discovered there was an automatic change to the settings. A new column, Volume, has been added, with a default filter for "Only the best results."
This setting will reduce the number of alerts that you get, so you might want to change the Volume setting to "All results", at least of a while, so you don’t miss anything.
