Lakewood News .. Collected

I'm a big fan of a new Internet service called FriendFeed that allows people to collect their favorite articles on the Internet, and talk about them. For an experiment, I created a version that tries to collect Lakewood news from the TNT and The Sub Times. http://friendfeed.com/rooms/lakewoodwashington Let me know what you think. I'm not sure it is that useful if it only has two 'feeds' coming into it.

This brings up another question, and maybe you can help me share an answer with our audience. I often check the Internet and Seattle media sites for news about our Lakewood. But, of course, there are 80 million Lakewoods in the United States (my estimate). And if you include 'Washington' as a search term, of course that helps but then you tend to get news about Washington D.C. How do you all search the Net for our Lakewood?

Searching for Lakewood. I use Lakewood,WA. Using the abbreviation sorts out DC. I used Comcast search and all the items on page 1 of the search were correctly attached to our city.
What do others do when searching?
