-------------------------------------------------------------------

Create a Google News Alert for the name of your loved one

http://www.google.com/alerts

Set it for Comprehensive Search and As-It-Happens

Also set up an alert for the name of any group your person was with

To test them before you set them, do a search at Google News using your term. http://news.google.com/nwshp?hl=en&tab=wn

If you get too many results, try adding the word Haiti, not in quotes

Usually you would use quotes around a name, but a full name might not be published, so you may want to do multiple alerts with variations of a name in quotes. Such as first and last name in quotes and another with the full name in quotes.

YOU MUST check and respond to the e-mail you will receive to verify you have set up an alert.

CNN:

CNN.com/haitimissing

CNN iReport is working to put together a database to help try to connect people with family, friends and loved ones in Haiti. The response has been tremendous – more than 4,000 iReports since Wednesday – and we're happy to report that some people on the list have been found.

We've called in people from all over CNN to help us and a lot of iReporters have asked what they can do.

Here are a few things that you can do that that would be a HUGE help:

• Tell your friends about CNN.com/haitimissing. Spread the word on your social networks. If you know someone who's looking for loved ones in Haiti, encourage them to upload a photo along with their name, age and location.

• Go to CNN.com/haitimissing and read the comments on a few posts. If anyone posts an update, such as "I found my uncle," shoot us an email at haitimissing@CNN.com.

• If you've heard from relatives in Haiti, look through the posts to see if you see anyone else you recognize. Use the search function to look for people from their area. Your loved ones may have told you about someone who hasn't been able to reach his or her family.

• Leave encouraging comments on a few iReports. Let people know you care about them.

Thanks to everyone who's offered to help.
