Just wondering if anyone has a working project to submit the form to make a Google Alert programatically? I looked at the Post when submitting the form and it was a bit of mess.

Welcome to CodeRanch.

Can't you use the Syndication class to do this? It seems Google uses RSS to deliver alerts.

I can already read the News via the rss, what I'm looking to do is Create a new Alert, Submit via code.
