Journalism Net's international newsfeed is powered by Moreover, but it's not<br />

designed for searching. Jnet provides links by country and region-North America ,<br />

Europe, and Africa-to <strong>the</strong> respective newspapers , news archives, television, radio,<br />

etc. There are also links to search tools, people finders, fact finders , newspapers,<br />

magazines, TV, radio, etc. The site is very heavily oriented towards tutorials-lots of<br />

"how to" pages, which are very useful.<br />

NewsNow<br />

http://www.newsnow.co.uk/<br />

NewsNow offers a newsfeed .that automatically updates itself every five minutes<br />

from news sources around <strong>the</strong> world. NewsNow is a UK resource that provides<br />

constant news monitoring of nearly 22000 worldwide sources on a large variety of<br />

topics. From <strong>the</strong> home page users can select a specific newsfeed from top-level<br />

subjects that include hot topics, business & finance, industry sectors, IT, Internet,<br />

current affairs, and regions. The newsfeeds are listed by "new in <strong>the</strong> last 5 minutes,"<br />

"10 to 15 minutes old," "15 to 30 minutes old," and earlier articles. Although earlier<br />

articles from <strong>the</strong> same or previous days are available, NewsNow is primarily a<br />

current news source, not an archive. NewsNow also offers a free simple search<br />

that is quite good.<br />

All sources are clearly indicated both by <strong>the</strong> name of <strong>the</strong> media outlet and by a<br />

national flag of <strong>the</strong> source's home country. Almost all <strong>the</strong> articles are in English,<br />

though I have seen a few non-English language articles on occasion. NewsNow is a<br />

great resource and is one of <strong>the</strong> best "breaking news" sources because of <strong>the</strong><br />

automatic updates, <strong>the</strong> number and quality of news sources, <strong>the</strong> fact it does not<br />

require registration/payment, and because it has no ads. NewsNow will not display<br />

properly in older versions of Netscape.<br />
