NextMention Offers more.
You are not limited to a single search.
Some people have a greater interest in media coverage, others blogs, some are especailly interested in Twitter comments or bulletin boards.
Some clever software working in the background tells you which catagory each citation belongs to (its clever and is right nearly all the time but we are still training it because sometimes it makes little mistakes).
Every week, you will receive a consolidated report. It tells you about how many citations and gives you trends information and even gives you a weekly archive so that you can go back to your favourite citations.
From your account page, you can setup new searches, change or delete existing ones or change how NextMention sends you your alerts.
From your instant messaging service (such as Google Talk www.google.com/talk/) you can start using the service just by typing in 'menu' and it shows you:
