I have a few on my blog, https://blog.andrewcantino.com, but nothing comprehensive. I mostly use it to monitor Reddit/HN/Twitter/various blogs for certain keywords, and also to keep an eye on local things that I want to know about (weather, events, emergencies, etc.).


Is it able to say login to my LinkedIn account and scan posts for keywords and alert me on matching posts?


It's trivial to write your own agents, and use other 3rd party gems in those agents. For fetching data from LinkedIn, checkout https://github.com/mdesjardins/linkedin-v2 (YMMV)


LinkedIn is as sketchy as Facebook on automated logins. They want to keep their data exclusive to them (and to people who pay for API access).
