One of the best ways of keeping track of domain names that are expiring that relate to your name is the Keyword Alerts by Network Solutions. This is a free service and you can sign up by creating an account. You get an email everyday for the domains that are expiring for the keywords you specified.
For people who use RSS feeds and find that very convenient Network Solutions introduced a RSS feed for expired domains. Ades Blog has great review on using this RSS feed for expired domains

Just as its wise to setup a Google alert for your name, I think you should use both these services to keep track of domains that contain your name or your company name that maybe expiring.
