Wherever you live, crime and your safety, both of your business and your family, are major concerns. The need to know what is happening in your area is important not just so that you know what you may need to do, but so that you can take the right precautions at the right time.
The right time is a critical factor. Finding out about a rash of robberies in your neighborhood even a few hours after it happens is a few hours lost in taking steps to protect yourself. But you can't spend all day sitting by the TV to see what's happening or wander around with a radio stuck to your ear. And even if you could, how do you know the broadcast you are listening to is going to cover the news that interests you?
A lot of people are turning to the internet as a source of up to the minute news. But here again the problem is that you can't spend all your time surfing the web and even in the time you have to do it in, with so much happening all the time, you could easily miss out on the news that's important to you.
But what about a service that finds the news that you need to know and sends it to you? There's a new website called Trackle.com that does just this. Lets suppose you live in Sunnyvale.
