Kebberfegg - Keyword Based RSS Feed Generator
Keyword RSS feeds are a powerful tool. For example, you can create an RSS feed in Yahoo News to be alerted to new articles with your search terms, as they're published. These feeds are comparable to news alerts that you can pay good money for out there in the for-fee world.
There are many news sites that offer keyword RSS feeds, but I didn't really know how many until I saw Kebberfegg, a tool created by Tara Calishain of ResearchBuzz.
To use Kebberfegg, just type in your search, select the kind of news you're looking for, and Kebberfegg will provide you with dozens of keyword feeds based on your terms. No need to visit each news site to find their RSS option; they're provided to you, quickly and easily.
This tool is a convenient way to create different keyword feeds, but it's also helpful to simply browse the lists to remind you of the many sources for current news.
