Google Makes Submitting News Comments a Little Easier

Google has added a link on the Google News home page that encourages sources quoted in stories to submit comments. The link directs people to a form to fill out. Previously, this was all done via email.

In addition, they have also added a bit more detail into which comments go up on Google News and why. This includes the following video, which the team added last week to YouTube.

Unfortunately, as far as I can tell the entire process still remains slow because it's mired in human authorization.

Qimonda

Alle Konkurrenten von Qimonda, die es noch gebe, seien vom Staat gefördert. Die Frage danach sei ohne Businessplan hypothetisch und stelle sich derzeit nicht, sagte Sachsens Ministerpräsident Stanislaw Tillich (CDU) nach Angaben von Regierungssprecher Peter Zimmermann in Dresden.

Im Hinblick auf einen möglichen Investor sei es wichtig, den Übergang zu gestalten. „Die Verantwortlichen bleiben aufgefordert, die bestehenden Instrumente zu nutzen“, so Tillich. Es müsse weiter intensiv nach einem Investor gesucht und an einer Lösung gearbeitet werden. Qimonda hatte am Freitag die Einstellung der Produktion am Standort Dresden zum 1. April angekündigt, da bisher kein Investor gefunden wurde. Es stehe viel Steuergeld auf dem Spiel, argumentierte IG Metall-Experte Cramer. „Ein Drittel der Chipindustrie in Sachsen haben die Steuerzahler bezahlt.“

Steve,

Personally, I think this whole process should be mired in a lot of human authorization - as in people authoring their follow up and options on other sites.

I hope I am not alone in feeling disquieted with commentary on Google News.

This could be a really good if it does not get abused with trash. Easier sometimes brings out the bad people who just want to put out trashy comments of no value

In a previous job I was able to get our website added to Google News source and the impact on traffic was incredible.
