Africa S. Hands The Big Free Three for News: Executive Summary
Jinfo Article

26th September 2012

By Africa S. Hands

Abstract

Bing News, Google News and Yahoo! News are three familiar, free search tools which aggregate news content from a wide variety of web sources. They cover content from many of the same sources - yet each has its own unique strengths and drawbacks. This special review of the "big free three" looks at sources, search options, outputs, alerts and mobile access - as well as important information to know about the terms & conditions of the usage of the content. This is the information that researchers need to know.
