I spend time each week to define the technology platform I use to accomplish business. One of the goals of this
platform definition is to assist in my migration to the cloud.
I realized another tool I use daily, but have overlooked. I use
Google Alerts to discover new information on blogs, search, and other discussions.
I follow the these key phrases / topics currently:
- Amazon Web Services
- Amazon EC2
- Amazon S3
- Application Programming Interface
- API
- Cloud Computing
- HTML5
- HTML5 localstorage
In addition to Google Reader and Twitter I use these daily Google Alerts to discover new sites, topics, and trends in my industry. I depend on these to keep me ahead of the curve when it comes to technology that is important to me.
I also use
Google Alerts to track the most important key phrase in my world....."
Kin Lane". Yes I am vain.
