Newsle - we track our friends online

I think at least once in your life you were looking for information about a particular person through a search engine. The only drawback is that manual search takes time. From the known automation tools, I recall such services as “Subscription to a request” from Yandex, the project ktotam.ru - unfortunately, both of them no longer work.

So, in the beta mode, the Newsle service started to collect information about any person that you are interested in. To begin with, you are invited to import contacts from Facebook or Twitter, then with a specified frequency you receive an email about found news / posts where the name and surname from the list of “observed” is present. The same tape can be read on the project website in your account.

In the account there is a division into “your” friends and public figures, where you can also set the maximum frequency of references to a particular person. Public figures of writers, politicians, etc. It is proposed to add from a specially assembled catalog with a simple rubric.

Impressions of use. The first report about my friends came with a lot of news about the full toes.
Those. decide whether to link issued "finds" with real people you have to yourself. Obviously, the attributes for searching are too few and cannot be changed for imported contacts. Those who are friends Ivan Ivanov will not enjoy using the service, we will wait for the next version. Also, it is not possible to add a user simply by entering information about him.

By the way, many special services of the world already use more sophisticated mechanisms for tracking certain events in the media, forums, including extracting facts about a given person.

And what more functional analogs than Newsle do you know?
