Check out the tool and leave some feedback so I can improve it:

The basic concept behind this tool is a one stop shop for the wealth of reputation management tools on the web.

This tool can be utilized to do repeated quick searches across multiple platforms for multiple terms, or it can be used to build a lasting reputation monitoring system.

The tool utilizes:
- Google News
- Technorati
- Digg
- Friend Feed
- Summize
- Bloglines

It searches these platforms for your terms and delivers the links to the search results, or more than likely the rss feeds for these topics.

I have also added in iframed searches for the terms on Blogpulse Trend Results and Google Trends to give you some idea about the amount of online buzz for each term.

If you desire to create a long term monitoring system:

1. As you locate feeds that you feel will serve your purposes, that are delivered by the tool ,copy and paste them into the RSS Mix window in the sidebar of the Snydey Web page.

2. When you have finished choosing, utilize RSS Mix to create a single feed from the multitude in the window.

3. Put this one feed into your Google Reader. Put the feed in a folder marked reputation, and decide whether you want to share the feed with your “friends” or not. Remember the concept of transparency when making this decision.

Is this end all be all?

Of course not. It is a free option for people looking to do quick searches on reputation around the web, and it also offers a degree of ongoing monitoring.

If you are looking for the best paid model I would suggest Andy Beal’s Trackur, 1) because I utilize it for my work 2) because I am an affiliate of the program (transparency).
