| Quote: | Google opens up 200 years of news
Web giant Google is further expanding its online empire with the launch of the Google News Archive Search.
The web-based tool allows users to explore existing digitised newspaper articles and more recent online content, spanning the last 200 years.
People using the search are shown results from both free and subscription-based news outlets.
Partners in the project include the websites of US newspaper the New York Times and the Guardian from the UK.

That looks like a brilliant idea! They may run into some issues with the subscription based news - but from the way it's set up it looks like they've avoided anything like that.
Definately useful for research! Especially current events and geneology.
