One of the services offered by Google is the Google Alert. Signing up for a Google Alert means that you will be e mailed a link whenever the subject you’ve registered appears online in an article, blog, book title, etc.
Several years ago I signed up with “Gertrude Stein” and “Alice B. Toklas” as my Google Alert topics. Everyday I get between 15-20 Alerts containing references to GertrudeandAlice.
The most common Gertrude Alert pertains to her quote about Oakland, California that “There is no there there.” (In one Alert someone had thought she had said it about Los Angeles!)
Oakland in the 1890's when the there was there
