A great information-gathering source


I subscribe to Google News in order to get info on what is happening in Tijuana. With all of the recent articles on Tijuana, and all of the happenings there (good/bad), its great to receive all of my news (in English) about this megalopolis.

Whatever top-secret wizardry they use at Google, it picks up most everything thats news-worthy and interesting on the topic. I wanted to run an alert on 'Baja', but I feared getting info that didn't pertain to the peninsula...
