Gale now offers RSS feeds

As part of a suite of interface changes, Gale is now offering the ability to subscribe to search alerts via RSS.  Just as with EBSCO, when I added the alert to Google Reader it came back with no results, so I'm assuming it will start feeding me new results when they're added to the database.  Easy enough to find the option; it appears to the right at the top of your search results, and if you subscribe to Gale databases you should be finding that option right now.  (that's also where you'll sign up for email alerts, should you swing that way).  The feed does include my institution's EZProxy info, so I'm hoping I'll be able to click through to read full text from off campus:

Also of interest to those of you who build persistent URLs to Gale results, you won't be looking for the "InfoMark" anymore, just look for the option to "Bookmark" the page:
