Amazon.com is one of the largest online booksellers. It used to offer a helpful e-mail alert service based on keywords that would notify you when new books became available. While this seems to have been discontinued, other services have filled the gap. Here are two examples:
Amazon RSS Feed Generator
- Enter a search term or terms and create your own custom RSS feed for any Amazon store item (the default is books). Copy and paste the feed into your newsreader, where book titles will update as new matches to your terms are made.
Amazon Feed Generator
- A similar service, although this one lets you use Amazon's power search syntax to build a more precise query.
