Get Your Local News via Google
Google has introduced a cool new feature for Google News. You can now target just the local news for example this link will give your just the news for North Reading. Here is snippet of what Google is providing:
Today we’re releasing a new feature to find your local news by simply typing in a city name or zip code. While we’re not the first news site to aggregate local news, we’re doing it a bit differently — we’re able to create a local section for any city, state or country in the world and include thousands of sources. We’re not simply looking at the byline or the source, but instead we analyze every word in every story to understand what location the news is about and where the source is located.
Go give it a try. I use it daily now to see what is going on around the area.
