“MANHUNTING”
“There is no hunting like the hunting of a man…and those who have hunted men and liked it have never cared for hunting anything else thereafter.” -Ernest Hemingway

WHY ???
In today’s tracing and cyber tracking environment we cannot effectively locate people, assets and collateral without a thorough knowledge of the available technology tools and trends. This ever changing technology includes, but is not limited to, knowledge of computers, communication equipment, sources of data and the laws which protect electronic data. It is also imperative that a 21st century tracer understand the value of verbal communication techniques and the power of Neurolinguistic Programming.
WHAT IS A SKIPTRACER-CYBERTRACKER?
A hunter of people or assets who has the ability to track through electronic sources, analyze data and exclude that which does not match the tracking pattern of the person or asset they are searching for and the ability to search 24/7/365 without communicating with any real person. The professional tracer must also possess communication skills and have the ability to extract information through the use of Neurolinguistic programming techniques

To Go Forward…Go Backwards
A professional tracer must have a starting point, a point where, without a doubt, the consumer being traced was present at a given time. The tracer must go back to that point to begin their search and follow the spoor forward to be effective. Original Documents…a starting point Location of last contact…a starting point Location of last payment…a starting point LKA/LKE…a starting point

SOCIAL MEDIA INVESTIGATION
A social media investigation looks into the social media posts, status updates, photos, and conversations of an individual. You might require a social media investigation for a court case, custody battle, or as part of a background investigation. This can be used as evidence in court cases to support alibis and provide supplementary evidence, for risk assessment, and for active monitoring.

SOCIAL SITE MONITORING
1. Google Alerts Google Alerts are e-mailed (or you can subscribe to the RSS feed) alerts of Google results. Step 1: Type in the search term. Step 2: Pick which kind of search type you want: News, blogs, Web, video, groups, or comprehensive (which includes all of the above search platforms). Step 3: Pick how often you want the updates (As it happens, once daily, or once a week) Step 4: Pick the e-mail length (up to 20 results or up to 50 results). Step 5: Pick whether to deliver it to your e-mail inbox or as a feed. Step 6: Hit subscribe. 2. Technorati Technorati is the largest blog monitoring service. Once you register your blog on Technorati, it tracks any blogs that reference your posts. To sign up for alerts, just search for your blog, then subscribe to the RSS feed. 3. Addictomatic Addictomatic allows you to create a personalized tracking page and pulls content from all over the Internet including, but not limited to Google, Yahoo, Technorati, YouTube, Truveo, Flickr, Blinkx, Ice Rocket, Digg, Topix, Newsvine and Tweetscan. Addictomatic is incredibly easy to use: Step 1: Enter a keyword to track. Step 2: Modify the boxes—add or subtract places you want content pulled from. Step 3: Bookmark it and check back. 4. Twazzup While I hate to mention anything with such a terrible name, Twazzup is a useful tool. Enter a keyword and Twazzup creates a dashboard tracking that keyword on Twitter. It breaks down and categorizes by link popularity, contributors, news, tag clouds and users, along with and including photos. It also shows who said what, how many times something was said, and how influential the people saying it are. 5. Social Mention Social Mention allows you to choose which platform you want to search a keyword across. You can choose among blogs, microblogs, images, events, news, videos, audio and more. You can choose a category individually or search across all of them. Social Mention includes a vast amount of statistics about the search in addition to actual search results. These statistics include the sentiment (positive, negative or neutral), top keywords, top users, Postrank rankings, and sources.
SOCIAL SITE MONITORING 6. Workstreamer Workstreamer is a relatively new service. It allows you to register with them, then track specific companies. You pick the company you want to track, then Workstreamer culls information from the internet. Add your company and you can check Workstreamer throughout the day, and look at all the news or divide it up by platform. Workstreamer allows you the option of connecting with LinkedIn and SalesForce. As a bonus, Workstreamer sends you a daily morning e-mail with the most popular company information from the day before. 6. HootSuite Hootsuite is a social media monitoring app that works with Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, Foursquare, Myspace and WordPress. It allows you to easily track all of your accounts, including @mentions on Twitter. In addition, you can track keywords on Twitter. You can create a tab and add columns tracking keywords such as your name, company name, and blog name to see what people are saying. 7. Klout Klout measures influence on topics from across different social media platforms. It allows you to track the impact of your links, recommendations, and options across a variety of social media platforms. It collects data about the content you create, how people interact with that content, and the size and composition of your network. It then collects the data and breaks it down in an easy- to-analyze way. 8. Web2express Monitoring Web2express describes what it does best: “Web2express Digest uses open semantic and NLP tools to analyze millions of Twitter conversations and blogs. It auto-discovers trending topics from fresh Web content and enables you to view new Web conversations around topics, enabling efficient monitoring of products, brands, companies, or competitors in real time.” While Web2express doesn’t have the prettiest interface, but it’s simple to use. Sign up, set up what keywords you want to track and see results immediately. 9. BoardTracker With BoardTracker, you can set up keywords to track, choose your preferences, and have the results e-mailed to you. It allows you to run searches on topics/keywords that are being discussed in forums or discussion boards. The great thing about BoardTracker is that it can tell you who is contributing to which topics and ranks them in order of frequency. 10. Monitter Monitter is a real time, live Twitter monitor that allows you to enter up to three keywords and monitor (or “monitter”) what is being said.
