rss feeds for google news Post date  08.11.2005, 1:54 PM

You can now syndicate sections, results, and customized pages on Google News using RSS (really simple syndication) feeds.

For many, Google News is -the- one-stop aggregator for current events. But now you can aggregate from the aggregator. With so many filters coming in between news outlets and their readers, can the identity of a publication be retained? If a newspaper decides to start charging for access to its website (as the New York Times is beginning to do), they'll cite revenue concerns. But in a way, they're saying something much more primal: we're unique, we exist!
