I am starting "Alternative Energy" as an Investors Hub version
of: ...siliconinvestor.com...subjectid=50902
It was started by William Marsh...
His thread has been mentioned in Forbes magazine
and is widely bookmarked by SI members.

Excel,

Lets get Matt & Bob's input on how iHub can alert members,
when a topic of interest to them, has a new board made.

Could be a non-pushy type iHub feature/option where members
can sign on/off receiving a iHub Private Message whenever a new
board contains a key word search hit on their voluptuous areas.

Actually, now that i just thought of what i typed in i think that
this is a bad idea :o)

I think Amazon.com's book store has a feature that lists to a buyer
books of a similiar nature, or books others buy in a similar nature.

ok,
I'am babbling now.
But lets say Sheriff Matt, as any iHub member, decided to search
iHub for any posts or boards that contained the name
of that three whel motorscooter he just bought.
Lets say he today did that and found out that 2 months ago
someone had a 1/2 sale on them. Now if iHub could do that
search each day for Matt without him having to remember himself,
then he could receive a PM each time a search gets a hit.
This way he would not miss out on opportunities.
or,
Lets say you hold shares in the off the wall company that is not
discussed here on iHub except once every 33 days on a board
that changes each 33 days... ok, this automatic search each day
by iHub would alert you whenever this share posted anywhere
on iHub via you getting a PM with the iHub search hit as message.
or,
I did a search on the Zurnip board for "alternative energy"
and got the following hit, with usernames displayed.
