Is there any RSS reader software for Windows or even some online service like Google Reader, that will periodically check feeds and notify me through e-mail when some keywords are found?

You can use Yahoo! Pipes to filter RSS feeds by keyword.

A guide is available here. A video tutorial is available here.

You can then use the output of the pipe with FeedMyInbox which provides 5 free feeds via email.

If you have more than 5 feeds then you can use Pipes to combine them into 1 feed as well as filtering.

I really hate watching feeds... e-mail is the only interface I would like to have. But thanks anyway. – Pablo Jun 7 '10 at 9:27
@Michael - I've updated my answer with an email service. – Shevek Jun 7 '10 at 9:44
Everything is eventually coming to pipes :) I like the idea and also tried it, will use it for a while but if anyone else knows more natural way of doing this or any software I'll be happy to know. – Pablo Jun 7 '10 at 9:59
