Are you watching over your brand and your users like the Delicious.com team?
If not, here are 5 ways to get you started:
- Use Twitter.com search to keep any eye on what is being said about your brand

- Setup Google Alerts for your brand name and related keywords
- Setup an RSS feed to relevant LinkedIn Answers topics that relate to your brand
- Join relevant Facebook and LinkedIn groups and discussions
