Link to September 14 New York Times article, "Google Releases News-Reading Services"

("Google Site Lets Reader Flip Through the News" is the Sept. 15 print edition headline.)

Excerpt: “Browsing news on the Web is much slower than it is in print,” said Krishna Bharat, a distinguished researcher at Google who developed Google News in 2002. “When it is fast, people will look at more news and more ads, (RG emphasis) and that’s something that publishers want to see.”

Yes!
