What are they saying about your chapter?

Do you know what's being said about your chapter?

One way to highlight your chapter's work in the community is to maintain a list of links to recent articles on the local paper's web site. But how do you find out when your chapter's been mentioned in the news? Wouldn't it be cool if you could get some sort of automatic notification every time your chapter was mentioned?

That's exactly what happens when you set up an automatic search agent on Google Alerts! It's as easy as 1-2-3:

1. Go to http://www.google.com/alerts/.


2. Enter your chapter's name in the search terms.


3. Choose a search type (I suggest "Comprehensive") and Frequency


4. Enter your email address.


5. Click the Create button.

And that's all you have to do (OK, that's really 1-2-3-4-5, but it's still easy). Google will let you know every time your chapter's name appears in the news. And it doesn't cost you anything but a few minutes of your time.
