Google Alerts are great, but unfortuantly the brevity of R's name is the main problem i think.
though, thinking about it, i suppose if one could work out the 'best' key words to use, it might be possible to not get too many miss- classified results, e.g., http://news.google.com/news?hl=en&ned=us&nolr=1&q=r+open+source+programming+language&btnG=Search or something like that. Will be keeping an eye on David's page from time to time though, just in case he catches anything :-) lovely to see R getting the attention it so rightly deserves.
