With Google News Alerts [1]…

With Google News Alerts you get filtered stories that can be posted to a cateogry weblog via a “mail-to-weblog feature.”  This in turn generates an RSS feed that can be subscribed to.  Simple.  This is going to be an ongoing thing.  Google slowly rolls out services they think they can control and end-users find ways to route around them.
