BTW, I 've been experimenting with it myself for a while and I found it not be far less useful for discovering NEW links and resources than Google alerts, even if you set "Updated recently" to 100% : http://search.msn.com/docs/help.aspx?t=SEARCH_REF_AdvSrchOperators.htm&FORM=HERE#sb_rr What you get is that e.g. Bloglines reports a search result whenever it has changed its description. And new results only are mentioned when they reach the top ten, which of course only a few pages do. Hi Mark,
