In addition to conventional online search techniques, such as googling via key word or tag, there are other alternative strategies which can keep instructors, practitioners, and students abreast of emerging multimedia in an efficient manner. One excellent technique is to create a Google Alert, which e-mails news alerts on the query term(s) to subscribers on a regular basis. The video shown above was recently brought to attention by way of my alert for "colon cancer."
Another productive technique making for almost effortless search is to create an iGoogle page embedded with gadgets such as RSS feeds, which automatically relay the latest items added to the website. The above video was brought to my attention through the NCI Benchmarks feed on my iGoogle page for cancer multimedia.
